What are the 5 WORST money mistakes you could possibly imagine? (hint: they’re probably not anywhere near as bad as you think they might be!).

In this Australian Finance Podcast episode, your hosts Kate Campbell and Owen Rask take the wheel in helping you avoid the most common money mistakes.

When it comes to investing, one of the reasons that commonly holds people back from getting started is the fear of making a mistake.

This is understandable, given your money is on the line, but you can push through it. At the end of the day, we truly believe the biggest mistake you can make is not actually starting at all.

Given we should try to learn through other people’s mistakes, and we can gain confidence through understanding all the ways we can go wrong, we wanted to share five common investing mistakes with you today, and how you can work to avoid them.
