Aussie finance guru's disposable income tips
An Australian property investing expert has left thousands of his followers bemused after a seemingly innocent post about looking forward to babysitting his granddaughter morphed into advice on working hard to build wealth.
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.
