524 | Saving More WITH a Mortgage: Proof That It’s Possible to Go From Living Paycheck to Paycheck to Investing in Property - Chat with Clinton
About this episode
“We weren’t criminals by any means, but that’s just how it was.” -Clinton
Growing up, today’s inspiring Summer Series guest, Clinton, faced such strong feelings of embarrassment and a reality with little to no money.
His family couldn’t afford car registration — and the fear of fines led them to "duck their heads and pretend we were in an empty car."
That lasting feeling of shame, a five-figure bank receipt, and a memorable Christmas present became the catalysts that set Clinton on his journey to financial freedom.
In this special episode, you’ll hear:
✅ The life-changing personal loan that changed his perspective on debt
✅ Dodging spruikers: How Clinton self-educated and built his property knowledge
✅ Breaking into the Cairns property market: How Clinton and his partner, Alana, took this competitive leap
✅ Saving more WITH a mortgage: The strategy that’s helping them save for their next investment and stay focused on their financial North Star
For a motivational story about the power of self-determination, the importance of mentors, and how one small town can change your life, tune in now!
