Aussie finance guru's disposable income tips
Scott Kuru, founder and CEO of Freedom Property Investors, posted an image of a portable baby cot, change mat and play area to his company's Facebook page on August 1.
The image showed all the gear next to a window overlooking Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Kuru started the post by describing how his granddaughter would be staying with him during the week.
'I was able to go out and buy a set of baby stuff to accommodate her and keep her safe happy and comfy. Made it super easy for her parents,' the post read.
What appeared to be the excitement of a doting grandfather quickly turned into a philosophical line of thinking about money and advice for Australians to build their own wealth.
'Having the funds to do that is a true blessing. Yes, money is not everything. But it sure as hell gives (you) options and ability to make some really special moments happen,' the post continued.
'Remember, whether it's your career or property investment or your business it's gonna take 10 years of focused concentrated effort to make real gains. Plant seeds today and reap the blessings tomorrow.'
Kuru's Facebook page has more than 32,000 followers and more than a few of them were happy to share their views on the property expert's advice to Aussies.
'Reminds me of the photos of people in car looking outside and happen to get the Rolex or Ferrari badge in the picture,' said Matthew Porch.
'Imagine being this much of a w**ker you turn an innocent post about your granddaughter into a flex,' Deb Leung said.
'Said from the penthouse overlooking the harbour and bridge,' Michelle Mancini said.
'This is what grandmothers do but don't need to post about. The audacity,' Michelle Wentworth said.
Kuru founded Freedom Property Investors alongside business partner Lianna Pan.
The duo utilise research data and insights to identify property locations in Australia they believe to be primes for growth.
'Scott has personally managed more than $4 billion in property transactions on behalf of over 10,000+ Freedom Members, helping them unlock wealth and financial freedom,' Freedom Property Investors' website reads.

News Corp's local papers bleed subscribers, compounding revenue struggles
Three of News Corp's top daily Australian tabloids lost subscribers across the 2025 financial year, contributing to the company's poor local results reported on Wednesday. The Herald Sun, The Courier Mail in Brisbane and Adelaide's The Advertiser all suffered paid-subscriber losses, while national masthead The Australian was the only paper to grow in successive years, according to new overnight corporate filings. The local numbers contrast with the company's decision to launch a new state-based print product based in Los Angeles, The California Post, which will be led by the Herald Sun 's weekend editor, Nick Papps, despite helping oversee subscriber losses across the year. The Herald Sun remains News Corp's largest state-based tabloid, despite losing 1 per cent of its customers, dropping to 153,983 paying subscribers across both print and digital. It was joined by The Advertiser, which lost 2 per cent of its customers, dropping to 106,969, and The Courier Mail, which also lost 1 per cent, dropping to 144,044, despite being the only print publication in Brisbane. The Australian continues to grow, now with 335,903 subscribers, up 4 per cent, while Sydney-based The Daily Telegraph was the only major city tabloid to grow its subscriber base after losses last year, jumping nearly 5 per cent to 151,336. However, it still has fewer paying subscribers compared with two years ago. News Corp posted a strong financial result on Wednesday, impressing shareholders with record profits despite continuing negative revenue trends in Australia. Revenue from circulation, subscriptions and advertising suffered, part of a long-term trend. News Corp will hope its cost-cutting measures in 2024 has improved its local financial fitness, with its 2024 finances, posted in late last year to Australia's corporate regulator showing a net loss of $43.3 million after tax, compared with a $17.9 million profit the year prior.
