Listen "Pat Mears: Delaying Gratification"
Episode Synopsis
In our first episode of Money Stories, we’re joined by Pat Mears, a seasoned property manager and owner of the successful Rubix Realty. Pat shares his inspiring journey from starting in real estate as a teen to building a portfolio of investment properties that’s setting him up to achieve his financial dream: retiring on the Gold Coast.
Pat dives into the lessons he learned early on about saving and budgeting from his parents and property investment books, and how those principles shaped his approach to building wealth. He emphasises the power of delayed gratification, saving, and planning for the future rather than chasing instant rewards.
