84. Tony - My Dad

Aussie Firebug

Today’s episode is very special to me personally.

I’m speaking with my dad about how he grew up and what money and life lessons he learnt along the way. He’s probably had the biggest impact on how I view the world (along with my mum) and set the foundations early on for me to be in the position I’m in today.
Some of the topics we cover in today’s episode are:

• What life was like growing up in Melbourne with immigrant parents (00:02:16)
• How Tony learned about money management as a child (00:13:08)
• Leaving school at 15 to help contribute to the family farm (00:19:26)
• Life lessons learnt from Tony’s immigrant parents (00:23:29)
• Comparing the housing market in 2023 to the 1970s (00:29:13)
• Learning about property investing (00:35:44)
• Stock market investing (00:48:15)
• Tony’s essential life lessons (00:53:47)
