Australia's #1 Finance Broker Graeme Holm breaks down the housing crisis nobody wants you to understand.
Why it's deliberately constructed. Why most Australians will stay broke. And exactly how to win anyway.
He reveals:
◼️The government conspiracy helping institutions f*ck you out of the market
◼️ Why people who complain about property will be broke forever
◼️The only insurance you pay that doesn't protect you (it protects the bank)
◼️How Australians waste half their income on food and bullshit
◼️The mortgage trap designed to keep families poor for 40 years
◼️Why rent = mortgage payments but nobody wants you to know
◼️The exact strategy to control multiple properties with small deposits
◼️How to leverage equity and build wealth while others complain
◼️Why the disparity will get worse—and which side you need to be on
◼️The 105% loan product that changes everything for first home buyers
Graeme Holm reveals why he built a 200-person empire with NO systems, the 3 external CEOs who all failed, how his team stays 8+ years when the industry average is 18 months, and the brutal truth about scaling that business coaches won't tell you.
Graeme Holm runs a mortgage business with 189 staff, created a "treasure chest" of award-winning leaders, and refuses to sell despite massive offers.
He exposes:
◼️ Why the 3 external CEOs he hired over 18 months all failed—and what that taught him about ownership
◼️ The "no systems" approach that kept his best people for 8-9 years (rare in any industry)
◼️ How his head of finance won Broker of the Year while working FOR him, not competing against him
◼️ Why "no one will ever treat your business like their own"—the truth about hired leadership
◼️ The difference between owners and operators—and why most business coaches were "failed employees"
◼️ How Rachel now runs his masterclasses after he built a "treasure chest of people" who can replace him
◼️ Why he's manic, unstructured, and ignores every business guru—yet scaled to nearly 200 staff going global
◼️ The real secret to long-tenure staff: competent people, not perfect systems
◼️ Why he refuses to sell for any amount—because "bean counters would run it and the community would suffer"
◼️ What 12 years of blood, sweat and tears bought him: "Now I can spend the rest of my life however the f*ck I want"
Australia's Money Mentor Graeme Holm exposes the $200M banking fraud, shocking 40-year mortgage traps, why 600,000 Australians were robbed, how farms were sold offshore, and the people controlling your wealth.
Graeme Holm has sold over $200 million in real estate, is co-founder of Infinity Group, and is one of Australia's most outspoken financial experts.
He reveals:
◼️ The $200M stolen from 600,000 everyday Australians—and why it was deliberately messy

◼️ How Australia's "big four" banks operate as a cartel
◼️ Why banks claim "it's your responsibility" after stealing from you
◼️ How to protect your wealth when the system is rigged against you
◼️ The shocking truth about who really owns Australia's assets
Graeme Holm, self-made entrepreneur and real estate investor who went from Housing Commission to building a multi-million dollar empire, opens up about childhood adversity, financial freedom, building generational wealth, and giving back for the first time, revealing the raw truth behind his remarkable transformation.
Starting from nothing, Graeme now manages nearly 200 staff across Australia, has transacted over $150 million in real estate in just four years, pays millions in tax annually, and runs multiple successful business pillars beyond just mortgages.
Beyond business, he's passionate about breaking the poverty cycle through community initiatives like the Kmart Wishing Tree and giving back to disadvantaged youth.
In this powerful conversation, he reveals:
◼️How growing up in Housing Commission and being told he'd never amount to anything became the fuel that drives him today

◼️How Australia's "working class poor" are trapped on a hamster wheel - and what needs to change
◼️Why he recently spent $40 million on assets in a single week - and the strategy behind it
◼️The brutal difference between being self-employed and running a successful business
◼️Why showing the receipts matters - every property address, transaction, win, and loss
◼️His mission to help young Australians escape poverty and build real community through sport and mentorship
◼️The surprising announcement and epic giveaway that's going to change lives

The difference between him and everyone else? He's not lazy.
Most people think success requires talent, connections, or luck. Simon's represented some of the world's most successful people - they have zero superpowers you don't have. The only difference is they refuse to be complacent.

◼️ What actually separates the top 1% from everyone else (it's pathetically simple)
◼️ Why most people fail (and it's 100% in your control)
◼️ The "free work" strategy that built a $10M+ empire from nothing
◼️ How he saved clients $4.4M on an $8.8M property (while others made excuses)
◼️ What his wealthiest clients taught him about hunger and drive
◼️ Why starting during the worst time became his biggest advantage

In this episode, Director of Place Kangaroo Point, Simon Caulfield unpacks how he’s built an office where top performers have their own identities—not “from Simon’s office”—and why the business must thrive without him.
We get into pathways from 500k GCI to seven figures, case studies across high-volume vs high-value models, and Simon’s personal playbook: two champagne COI events a year, a “favorites” list he calls religiously, and being a present, trusted local over flashy ads.

He dives into Wolfpack Fridays, retaining top talent by giving them reasons to stay, using an AI recorder to capture meetings and train staff, and the three-corner support team (manager, coach, trainer).
