Oh man. This is... not a good idea. If he's really, really lucky, some 'tough love' will work. But this is desperation... and I suspect it will backfire. Trying to win by running down *every* player is a low-probability bet.

Don’t let inflation diminish your hard-earned money. By strategically investing across various asset classes, you can build a diversified portfolio that not only preserves your purchasing power but also positions you for future growth.

Do you recall the days when a steaming cup of coffee set you back just 50 cents? When you could catch a movie for only $3, and grocery bills didn’t break the bank? It’s amazing how much things have changed!

• Precious Metals (Gold & Silver): Often seen as safe-haven assets, these can preserve value when inflation is high. • Commodities: Investments in goods like oil, natural gas, or agricultural products can diversify risk and offer inflation protection.

• Fixed Income (Bonds & Mutual Funds): Bonds can deliver steady income and help stabilize your portfolio during volatile periods. • Real Estate: Property values and rental incomes tend to rise with inflation, making real estate a proven hedge.

Latest on vacancy rates and rents from @SQMResearch - the most accurate data provider for the real estate industry in Australia. Louis Christopher, Managing Director of SQM Research said: “For the past 30 days, SQM Research has recorded the largest decline in capital city rents since the days of 2020 when Covid first hit the country. The falls were broad based, with the larger falls recorded in our larger capital cities and regional coastal locations. It should be noted of course that rents are still very high and this retracement is minor compared to the massive rise in rents recorded around the country since 2021. And it should also be stated that the rental crisis is still not yet over as we have recorded an ongoing low national rental vacancy rate of just 1.3%. But still, this will be somewhat welcoming to tenants and as a research house, we do believe the market rental rises of 10 to 20% per annum are now over.”
