A mindset for achieving financial freedom

Financial freedom is a goal that many aspire to, yet few truly achieve. It’s often viewed as a simple formula: earn more, save diligently and invest wisely. However, financial freedom also entails establishing sound financial habits early on so you can build enough wealth, passive income streams, or savings to comfortably cover your expenses and live financially free.

Die Onsigbare Slaggate van Kontantbeleggings

Ek het onlangs die geleentheid gehad om namens PSG Wealth op RSG Geldsake met Ryk van Niekerk te gesels oor ‘n tema wat my nogal pla: Suid-Afrikaners is te lief vir kontantbeleggings. Hoewel dit veilig lyk, is daar slaggate wat beleggers dikwels miskyk — veral oor die lang termyn.

The invisible pitfalls of cash investments

I recently had the opportunity to talk to Ryk van Niekerk on RSG Geldsake on behalf of PSG Wealth on a theme that bothers me quite a bit: South Africans are too fond of cash investments. Although these investments seem safe, there are pitfalls that investors often overlook – particularly in the long term.

Making the most of your meeting with a financial adviser

Building a trusted relationship with your financial adviser is key to achieving your financial goals – after all, the relationship between client and adviser has some similarities to a marriage. The intention should be to forge a relationship that is life long and continues through generations. To make the most of the services a financial adviser provides, it’s a good idea to spend some time considering how to make the most of the time you spend with them.

Planning a legacy to benefit generations to come

‘One day when I’m big!’ How many times have we uttered those words as children when dreaming about our future? And then, quite suddenly, we find ourselves ‘adulting’ and reflecting on the lessons we’ve learned and considering the legacy we will be leaving the next generation.

How NOT to Invest.

While recently browsing the business section of my local bookstore I was struck by the many books which titles begin with the words ‘How to…’ (‘How to invest’; ‘How to make millions’; ‘How to be like Warren Buffett; ‘How to blah blah blah’) and so it was quite refreshing to notice Barry Ritholtz (Co-founder, chairman, and chief investment officer of Ritholtz Wealth Management LLC) new book title, ‘How NOT to Invest’ which book I subsequently bought.

Why Millennials Struggle to Save for Retirement – and Why It Matters

According to research conducted by Allan Gray, millennials—those individuals born between the early 1980s and early 2000s—tend to focus on saving for short-term goals but often overlook the importance of long-term financial planning, particularly for their retirement.  They tend to be more debt-averse when it comes to credit cards and large purchases like homes or cars. This caution is evident in lower rates of homeownership and delayed milestones like marriage and starting families, often tied to financial readiness rather than cultural expectations.

Understanding the true cost of investing: what the EAC really tells you

One of the most important – and most misunderstood – aspects of investing is the cost involved. While much is said about fees, few investors truly understand how to interpret them or for what they are actually paying.

Verstaan die ware koste van beleggings: wat die EAC regtig vir jou sê

Een van die belangrikste aspekte van beleggings, en die een wat die meeste verkeerd verstaan word, is die koste wat betrokke is. Hoewel daar baie oor fooie gesê word, verstaan min beleggers hoe om dit te interpreteer of waarvoor hulle eintlik betaal.
