Join Ben Kingsley and Evan Lucas as they break down the decision and its impact on homeowners, investors, and the broader economy.

With the Big Four banks forecasting multiple more rate cuts throughout 2025, what should Australians expect next?

“I’ve definitely (got) no regrets and very excited for what the future holds...”
- Jonti

Folks, this inspirational quote is from our LAST Summer Series guest for 2024/25 who, by the age of 32, has survived and grown from experiences and horrors most of us can only imagine...

With a new business, a flourishing property portfolio in Australia and a recent purchase of his dream $1.9M home, it seemed like Jonti had his life in order.

That is until his life-altering accident.

Tune in now to find out Jonti not only survived but thrived after instantly becoming a paraplegic – all while juggling his own business, debt levels and a relationship breakdown to come out with his positive outlook above.

P.S. A heartfelt thank you to each of our incredible guests for sharing their inspirational stories. We’ve absolutely loved sitting down, listening, and learning from your journeys. These moments are what make this series so special. ❤️
