Noel News I’ve looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It’s life’s illusions I recall I really don’t know life at all  JONI MITCHELL Welcome to our latest Newsletter It’s been a work in progress and the last 24 hours made me think of the famous words “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” I thought I had completed this newsletter last Friday and had everything set for it to go out today, Monday 26th of August. Yesterday was Sunday in Los Angeles -the day of our scheduled departure – and we were looking forward to arriving home in Brisbane at 5 am on Monday. We duly arrived at Los Angeles airport at 6:15 pm for the 9.15 Qantas flight to Brisbane. Welcome to our latest Newsletter It’s been a work in progress and the last 24 hours made me ...

NOEL NEWS The meaning of life is to find your gift.  The purpose of life is to give it away.  DAVID MELTZER Thank you so much Thank you so much for your overwhelming support of the new edition of Super Made Simple. Within three days we had nearly 1000 orders and I had to recruit the entire family to help with the mailout. It did take a whole weekend, but it was a great experience for the grand kids to learn how business works and to earn some pocket money. I had decided to handle the mailing of that special offer myself as I didn’t want to over burden Neil who packs all the other books. You may remember he broke his hip in March – he is indispensable. Just don’t delay – the special deal, which was designed for the original buyers of Superannuation Made Simple, which is now ...

Noel News Age is an issue of mind over matter …if you don’t mind it doesn’t matter. MARK TWAIN Welcome to a new financial year, and a whole new world of superannuation. Major changes took place on 1 July and today I’m pleased to announce we have released a brand-new superannuation book to take the new changes into account.

Noel News Special Bulletin The philosophy of the rich versus the poor is this ; the rich invest their money and spend what’s left; the poor spend their money and invest what’s left. This is a special bulletin because I want to tell you about a webinar I’m doing next Thursday. But first, let’s start with an amazing story. The passbook that grew Image by Micheile Henderson on Unsplash Thirty-seven years ago I released Making Money Made Simple, a book which has transformed the lives of thousands of Australians, and been named one of the 100 most influential books of the 20th century. Even now, seldom a day passes when I don’t receive emails from people telling me how much that book changed their lives. As of today the book has sold over 2 million copies, and we’ve just released the 25th edition. The information is as relevant now as ...

Noel News Life moves pretty fast.

Get the book here with Making Money Made Simple ­$49.99 with Retirement Made Simple ­ $49.99 with Downsizing Made Simple ­$49.99 I also did talk back spots on ABC radio and 6PR and the lines were jammed.  Clearly there’s a great need for advice on estate planning. In the next 20 years over $1 trillion will change hands as the baby boomers die and the best way to dispose of their assets has become a major issue for most retirees. For my presentations I designed an Estate Planning Prompt Sheet which is a great summary of some of the most important issues canvassed in Wills, death & ...

Noel News Special Bulletin I’m thrilled to tell you that my new book Wills, Death & Taxes went on the printing presses last Thursday. The catalyst for writing a book about estate planning was a bulletin from Finder claiming that 12 million Australians did not have a will and 60% have never given a thought to estate planning. That’s a serious situation – and a signal that many people are unaware of the complexities that can arise if proper estate planning is not put in place. Recently I was having a chat to the guy who takes care of my garden, and I asked him if he had a will. He replied “never got around to it. It all seems too much trouble.” I responded “you’ve been married before haven’t you –and don’t you have any children from that relationship? He said yes to both questions. He got a shock ...
