Money Tips for your growing family, with Tom Haigh from My Money Sorted

The Parenting Couch

In this episode of The Parenting Couch podcast, Rachel and Sarah sit down with money guru Tom Haigh from My Money Sorted, who shares his top tips for not only saving money, but how we can use it to set us up for a more comfortable life.
Money determines the house we live in, the holidays we go on, the clothes we buy, the meals we make... and our general levels of comfort and stability. But we don't get taught this stuff in school!
Tom is a local Dad to three kids… who is passionate about putting money-matters into a way that is easy to understand. In the interview, Tom explains...

• Is it better to fix your home loan at the moment, or opt for a variable rate?
• Why you should speak to a mortgage broker to ensure you're getting the best rate
• Why right now it's a "buyers market" for real estate
• How to save money on day-to-day living expenses... should you be cutting back on the smashed avo, or reviewing your direct debits?
• How to manage credit card debt
• Why putting extra money into your superannuation is good for tax now, and good for your retirement!
• Why you need a clear plan to repay your debts before retirement
• Why putting additional repayments on the mortgage can be a phenomenal way to reduce the term of the home loan and also the the amount of interest you pay.
• How to 'enjoy the journey' and not just focus on money saving
• Why it's important to reward yourself daily with the small things (like a take-away coffee)
