    Why The Aussie Economy is F*cked

    Tom Hawley joins James Smith to expose the deliberate machinery behind a cost-of-living crisis most people don't even know is happening to them. The co-founder of Azura Financial, one of Australia's top 10 brokerages and a three-time Residential Broker of the Year, Hawley argues that inflation isn't a natural force but a policy choice, a quiet tax on your purchasing power that hits lower and middle-income earners hardest precisely because they can't see it. 👁️ Try Neutonic: https://www.neutonic.com/jamessmith 🧪 Check your Test: https://www.manual.co/smith 📝 Business Mentoring: https://www.jamessmith.business 🏋🏼‍♂️ Online Coaching: https://www.jamessmithacademy.com Tom Hawley on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/tom_hawley_/ Azura Financial – https://www.azurafinancial.com.au Chapters: 00:00 The Hidden Tax Nobody Voted For 01:13 What Is Inflation Really? 04:11 Why Governments Want Your Money to Lose Value 06:44 Capital Gains: How the Goalposts Just Moved 08:01 Why High-Growth Investment Gets Punished Most 09:08 James's Plan to Dodge the Tax Man 10:30 Is the Stock Market Even Worth the Risk Now? 13:35 Are Australia's Politicians Thick or Deceptive? 15:35 Did Labor Politicians Just Commit Insider Trading? 16:50 Pulling the Ladder Up on Negative Gearing 19:42 Australia Is in Economic Trouble 22:43 The Immigration Trap: Six Years Locked Out 27:59 The 457 Visa That Vanished Overnight 31:18 What GDP Growth Actually Hides 32:37 The Festival Trick That Explains the Economy 35:24 Printing Money Is Just Diluting You 38:03 Government Waste and the $70,000 Plaque 41:14 Three Tiers: Government, Employment, Self-Employed 45:09 The Curse of Never Switching Off 47:59 Chasing a Billion-Dollar Exit for Neutonic 50:02 Why the Journey Beats the Payday 53:03 A Petrolhead's Defence of Buying the Car 57:31 Why Ripping It for Ten Kids Is Worth It 01:00:00 Smiles Per Mile vs Saving It All 01:02:25 The Revolver Logic of Retirement 01:04:20 Should You Buy a House or a GT3? 01:08:02 Why Buy When the Market Feels Worst 01:11:48 The Leverage Play Explained 01:13:18 Will Gen Z Just Inherit It All Anyway? 01:15:00 Are We Heading For a Death Tax? 01:17:08 The Welfare Trap: Better Off Not Working 01:21:33 You Get Less of What You Tax 01:23:49 Will Australia Lose Its Entrepreneurs? 01:24:54 Tall Poppy Syndrome vs the American Way 01:27:38 Closing Advice for the Everyday Punter 01:28:51 What the Government Must Do to Save the Australian Dream Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Problem With Running A Small Business: Diren Kartal

    Diren Kartal joins James Smith for an honest, often hilarious conversation about what running a small business actually does to you once the money is coming in but the freedom isn't. Diren is a personal trainer and Turkey's number one fitness coach with over 1.2 million followers, and despite bringing in hundreds of thousands a year he can't shake the feeling that none of it sticks. Together they unpick the tax trap that's bleeding British high-earners dry, the brutal "valley of death" stage of scaling, his secret ADHD diagnosis, and why the two of them keep eyeing the exits to Australia, Dubai and Turkey. 👁️ Try Neutonic: https://www.neutonic.com/jamessmith 🧪 Check your Test: https://www.manual.co/smith 📝 Business Mentoring: https://www.jamessmith.business 🏋🏼‍♂️ Online Coaching: https://www.jamessmithacademy.com Diren Kartal's YouTube Channel – https://www.youtube.com/c/DirenKartal Diren Kartal On Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/diren.kartal/ He explains: ◼️ Why he can earn hundreds of thousands a year and still not feel a penny of it ◼️ The HENRY trap, and why earning over 100k in the UK can quietly leave you worse off ◼️ The secret ADHD diagnosis and meds that finally turned the noise off and let him focus ◼️ Why the rich borrow against their assets instead of selling, and never pay the tax ◼️ Why short-form scrolling left him "depressed and disgusted" and long form is the real comeback Chapters: 00:00 The Problem With Running A Small Business 01:25 Bringing In Hundreds Of Thousands And Feeling Nothing 01:52 HENRY: High Earner, Not Rich Yet 03:21 The Cost Of Living In London Right Now 04:07 Every Tax Under The Sun 05:25 Why The Shops Keep Shutting Down 06:27 Business Rates Are The Real Killer 07:39 Going All-In And How Tough It's Been 07:56 Is AI A Disruptor Or A Distraction? 09:00 Why AI Still Can't Replace The Human Bit 10:27 The Real Reason People Stopped Posting 11:58 Living It vs Looking Like You're Living 12:51 The Steven Bartlett Problem 14:19 Being Unapologetically Yourself 15:10 Short Form Is Dying, Long Form Is Back 17:00 The Will Kennedy Trust Lesson 18:03 The Diren Kartal Experience 20:27 Thinking Fast And Slow: Give Him An A-Task 22:00 Why Men Talk Shoulder To Shoulder 23:54 The Front End Is Easy, The Back End Breaks You 25:36 Long-Term Memory, Terrible Short-Term Memory 26:23 The Pressure Nobody Warns You About 27:45 You Don't Want Your Son To See You Fail 28:28 Council Estate Vibes And The Fear Of Going Back 29:25 Getting The Psych Test 30:25 Six Months On ADHD Meds 32:20 Manufacturing Stress To Motivate Yourself 34:30 Is There A Real Return On The Meds? 35:35 Escaping The Desk Job To Build Another One 36:53 The 150 Grand Website Regret 37:50 Australia Is Bad, The UK Is Worse 40:04 289,000 Businesses Set To Fail This Year 41:20 Boomers Hate To Hear How Good They Had It 43:50 Why Earning More Can Leave You With Less 45:12 Your Favourite Part Of Britain Is Leaving It 46:23 Do The Elites Just Find The Loopholes? 47:04 Stop Making The Top Earners Feel Like Villains 49:05 Why Hating Landlords Makes No Sense 51:32 How Politicians Punish The Young To "Help" Them 53:16 Will He Stay In Australia? 53:43 How The Rich Borrow Against Assets And Pay No Tax 55:01 The Stuff They Never Teach You In School 56:17 The Money Chat That Changed Everything 57:43 The Valley Of Death: 12 To 30 Employees Is Hell 58:38 If He Did It Again He'd Stay Small 59:06 We're Both Hypocrites About Debt 01:00:17 Tripling The Money As An Investor 01:02:20 The Adapt Story And Building A Brand With Mates 01:04:26 What's Missing From Jiu Jitsu 01:07:28 Just Wanting To Look Good On The Mats 01:08:35 Taking The Piss Out Of Jiu Jitsu Culture 01:09:06 Becoming The Joe Wicks Of Turkey 01:10:47 Should You Get Assessed For ADHD? 01:11:33 Meds, Music And Feeling Like You're On Psychedelics 01:12:36 Raising A Son Without The Noise 01:13:23 Wrapping Up Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Problem With Work-Life Balance: Paul Mort

    Paul Mort joins James Smith for a no-holds-barred conversation on work-life balance, building a business you don't want to escape, and why most people are chasing a version of freedom they haven't earned yet. A two-time Master Coach of the Year, bestselling author, and podcast host, Paul Mort makes the case that work-life balance isn't a time problem or a workload problem; it's a clarity problem, and you can't hit a target you can't see. 👁️ Try Neutonic: https://www.neutonic.com/jamessmith 🧪 Check your Test: https://www.manual.co/smith 📝 Business Mentoring: https://www.jamessmith.business 🏋🏼‍♂️ Online Coaching: https://www.jamessmithacademy.com Paul Mort's YouTube Channel – https://www.youtube.com/@paulmortofficial Paul Mort on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/paulmort/ He explains: ◼️ How boundaries — not balance — are what actually protect your life ◼️ Why a great hire is an investment, not a cost ◼️ What a "shitty job" teaches you that Gen Z has been sold out of ◼️ Why you should buy back time before you buy the Ferrari Chapters: 00:00 The Real Problem With Work-Life Balance 03:10 You Haven't Earned Chapter 20 Freedom Yet 04:45 Boundaries Are How You Protect What Matters 06:26 Hire People Who Manage You, Not the Other Way Round 08:55 Bringing Other Humans Into the Business 09:45 Death By a Thousand Requests 12:27 A Ferrari or a Member of Staff? 13:45 Why a Great Hire Is an Investment, Not a Cost 14:30 Has Gen Z Been Sold a Pipe Dream? 15:07 Why James Only Hires People Who've Had a Shitty Job 16:50 The Hires That Went Wrong 17:32 Your Biggest Haters Are Former Fans 20:25 Chasing Clout and Why It's Never About You 21:13 When the Comments Feel Like the Whole World 22:39 Defending Your Friends but Not Yourself 25:49 Practising Gratitude as Success Gets Complicated 27:01 Your Values Shift — and That Becomes a Boundary 29:14 Lying to Yourself About Being Happy "Later" 30:09 Could You Actually Retire?

    The Problem With Not Understanding The Economy: Tom Bilyeu

    Tom Bilyeu joins James Smith to discuss how broken the modern economy really is.

    The Problem With Linkedin: Lara Acosta

A LinkedIn growth expert and founder who's helped thousands of professionals turn themselves into trusted authorities, Lara breaks down why most people are doing LinkedIn wrong — and why the platform isn't the problem, corporate is. 👁️ Try Neutonic: https://www.neutonic.com/jamessmith 🧪 Check your Test: https://www.manual.co/smith 📝 Business Mentoring: https://www.jamessmith.business 🏋🏼‍♂️ Online Coaching: https://www.jamessmithacademy.com Lara Acosta's YouTube Channel – https://www.youtube.com/@Laraacosta Lara Acosta On Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/laraacostar/ She explains: ◼️ Why LinkedIn isn't cringe — corporate is ◼️ What's actually changed in the algorithm and how to ride it ◼️ Why AI slop is killing engagement (and why Lara doesn't care) ◼️ How to micro-dose failure instead of betting the house ◼️ Why following your skill beats following your passion every time Chapters: 00:00 The Real Problem With LinkedIn 01:16 Why LinkedIn Feels So Cringe 03:19 James's Years in the Corporate Trenches 05:46 Hacks to Leave Work Early Without Being Noticed 08:06 Sales, Recruitment, and the Posh Hotel Voice 11:11 What's Actually Wrong With the Algorithm 12:48 Carousels and Picture-First Posting 14:21 The Great LinkedIn Articles Debate 21:06 The Three-Hour Workday Conspiracy 24:05 Social Loafing and Bloated Departments 26:06 Cocaine, Cider Hands, and Surviving Corporate 28:18 Three Weeks at Activision Doing Nothing 30:35 Failing First Year of University 33:00 The Birmingham Housemates Story 35:00 Failing Spanish as a Native Speaker 38:31 The AI Slop Problem on LinkedIn 40:29 Why Engagement Prompts Actually Work 43:53 Entrepreneur vs Business Owner in Britain 45:45 The Texas Barbecue New Tonic Story 50:15 The Zero Sum Mentality Trap 52:57 Lara's NPower Door-to-Door Scam Job 56:00 James in a Prom Suit Selling Energy 58:32 One in a Hundred and the Power of Rejection 01:01:35 Enjoying Every Stage of Business 01:02:55 The Problem With Remote Working 01:09:03 Giving Your Team Rope to Climb or Hang 01:10:44 The Problem With Leadership on LinkedIn 01:15:32 The Goalposts That Never Stop Moving 01:16:00 James's Complacency in Lockdown 01:19:13 Closing Takeaways: Follow Skill Not Passion This conversation is part LinkedIn masterclass, part corporate exorcism. Lara's clear-eyed take on the platform — what the algorithm rewards, what AI is doing to the feed, and why most leadership content is fake — meets James's lived experience of faking pisses to scroll Twitter, calling Cornwall County Council 100 times a day, and getting binned from a job he never figured out. The result is a candid look at why so many people stay stuck in jobs they hate, and a practical case for micro-dosing failure until you build the life you actually want.
