Motivated Money - Peter Thornhill Wealth Inspiration Event

Do attend, you'll love it. He'll change the way you look at the sharemarket ie very positively. Say hello to Peter from me (ie Gordon).

And please report back on the Thornhill thread here what you thought of the course and key points you learnt.

 

I'll do all that !

@Frank Manno Thanks for posting.
There isnt much detail in the link to tickets and I cant see the Sydney event on the motivated money webpage.
Does anyone know what the day consists of ?

 

Well the person who told me about it wrote this to me in an email..

"Hi Frank, Peter Thornhill is putting on this event to speak about his book and investing knowledge. Normally this is run through Sydney University and costs $410, however this is the same event being run at a special price."


Thats about all the info I have..


-Frank

 

Fortitude Financial Planning is who Peter uses personally. I'd expect the presentation will be the same as presented elsewhere.

 

I did check the Fortitude webpage nothing but reference to last years event.
Nearly finished his book so Im keen but need to do some DD before I jump in

 

I went to the event in June. It was eye opening and hugely beneficial. I brought my wife along too. Best decision I ever made. Am thinking of going again, but if content is similar, I might sit out.

 

The event could be along similar lines to (summary about a previous presentation). The lines highlighted in green are some (of the many) aspects that I found real ah-ha moments from the day:

Finance. Boost your financial know-how.
Most of us know how to spend money, but very few of us know how to make it! Put simply, your choices in the short term will have the greatest impact on your long-term dreams and ambitions. In this informative day we’ll discuss how the Australian share market works, the importance of a long-term view, how to ensure you generate an income from your assets, dividends and yields, investing versus speculating, what really happens when we sell, and the effects of tax and inflation. We’ll also cover the performance of some of Australia’s top companies. Good ideas for getting started no matter what your budget and where to go for further information and advice.

Thankyou for sharing that link @Frank Manno !

 

1/2 a grand

Isn't the thread from @austing and others comprehensive enough?

 

I've just started reading through the Thornhill thread. Upto page 13 and it was enough for me to order the book over the weekend. Would love to go to this one

 

Tickets are $111? Let’s me proceed to booking.

 

Maybe not. I've never attended a Thornhill course.

 

Depends on how you like to receive your info. For some, reading is ok, others like to interact and discuss the topics etc. I found the day was more valuable after reading the book, getting an insight and asking questions about aspects I wasn't sure about, as well as discussions with other attendees.

 

Done ticket booked

 

I have planned to attend this.

 

** BUMP **

Who's confirmed for this? It would be good to meet up.

Who else from Property Chat is attending?

@RayO
@Frank Manno

 

I'll be there!

 

It would be great if course attendees could give some feedback about the course on the PC main Thornhill thread. It’s gone quiet lately. Peter needs to pump out a few more “My Say” newsletters to keep his audience enthused I think. Surely that’s more important that tripping around the world trying to spend his dividends. Shame on him.

But don’t tell him some of his previous course attendees from PC have gone feral and are having a crack at speculative shares as witnessed on the “What’s Looking Cheap on the ASX” thread.
