Hi friends,

Happy New Year!  2020 is here already, can you believe it?

Now of course ‘2020’ also represents perfect vision... and this was the target year I set for my Vision and Top 5 Big Goals way back in 2007.

As of right now, here’s where things are at:

2020 Vision Update

  1.  Create 1,000 Financially Abundant Australians: (trust me, there’s lots!)

  2.  Inspire 100,000 People Live At Our Events: currently 79,433 attendees

  3.  Distribute 1,000,000 Books: currently 615,489 books

  4.  Contribute $1,000,000 To Worthwhile Causes: currently $471,591.60

  5.  Plant 1,000,000 Trees In Australian Soil: currently ZPE 27,006 / Clients 18,279 trees (we match you tree-for-tree)

Thanks to everyone that has contributed along the way, originally set for a 10 year goal, it got extended to 2020, and clearly lots has changed in the past few years.

As you know, the Australian economy and property market has changed significantly, which is why our strategies have been so effective over the past 13 years.

Still, we now know how much central banks and cheap money drive the prices of real estate, and when banks don’t lend (like now) it makes it a very difficult environment.

When it comes to making money, the trend is your friend... you want to go with the rising tide, not against one...

And that’s why I have only recommended 3 strategies in the past 2 years.

In December just gone, I added a 4th strategy around precious metals, and those that listened could have made up to a 22% gain in December alone.

Interestingly, I read an article showing physical Gold as an investment not only outperformed the ‘world’s greatest investor’ Warren Buffet last year, it’s also outperformed him and his company Berkshire Hathaway over the past 10 years.

Not bad for purchasing a physical lump of metal 10 years ago, stashing it somewhere close at hand, and waiting. Think of how much work, time, staff, stress, risk, etc, Buffet has had to endure to get a worse result over 10 full years!

Now, in property, I still believe our Airbnb strategy is the best, low-risk, high-return strategy in this current market.

Whilst there are some regulatory issues still to be addressed in some areas, the co-hosting model is an incredible way to do this strategy starting with little-to-no money that should do well regardless.

It’s also an international opportunity which appeals to many Aussies with ties and properties in other countries outside of Australia.

That’s why we’ve just released a brand new updated Webcast presentation in the Gift of the Month below, if you’d like to check out why this is still so powerful.

Still on the topic of Airbnb, I do want to take a moment to acknowledge the hundreds of hosts across the east coast who contributed to Airbnb’s Open Homes Disaster Relief Program, which provided much-needed reprieve for devastated families, victims and emergency service personnel of the recent bushfires.

I’m told many of our students who were in a position to offer free temporary accommodation did so proactively, turning their attention from profits to humanitarian efforts and putting the need of others firmly before their pockets. A huge personal thanks if you were one of those who was able to help.

And finally, in the Cryptocurrency space, the much anticipated ‘Halving’ event with Bitcoin is expected to happen this May 2020. This ‘halving’ event has been very bullish for Bitcoin prices in the past and could be so again to those of you interested in this space. With only 21 million Bitcoin ever to be mined, it’s definitely a limited edition!

Enjoy this month’s expert videos, I’ve done one ‘on location’ at my tree planting site.

What would it take to make this your best year ever?

To Your Success
