Passive income is one of the most overlooked wealth strategies and it’s time we talk about it. There are so many people sitting on six figures in their bank account thinking they’re being “smart” or “safe.” So let’s look at the actual maths. If you have $150,000 AUD in a standard Australian savings account earning around 4% per year, your nine month return looks like this: $150,000 x 0.04 = $6,000 per year Divide by 12 = $500 per month Multiply by 9 months = $4,500 total So you leave $150k parked for nine months and the bank hands you $4,500. Before tax. And this is where it gets interesting. Most people know there are higher-return options in the world, but they only ever hear about the risky ones. Recently I came across something that feels steady in my nervous system. Predictable. Clean. Clarifying. It’s a strategy you can use two ways. You can allocate a portion for retirement. Or you can create genuine passive income that pays you weekly. I joked to my partner that I could sunbake full time with returns like this. Obviously I won’t, but the truth is I absolutely could if I wanted to. And here’s the real power move. You can take a portion of that passive income and move it into a higher-performing asset like Bitcoin, which turns the whole thing into a strategic wealth-building loop instead of relying on the banks to drip-feed you crumbs. I genuinely have no idea why more people aren’t talking about this. December 9, 2025, Tuesday at 2pm, I’m hosting a call and I’m opening it up to people who aren’t currently inside 30 Days to Crypto Confidence. If you want to understand this strategy and hear exactly how it works, you’re welcome to join. Comment on this post or DM me for the link and I’ll send it through. With love and abundance... Jess x

Most people still think retirement planning means topping up super, buying a house and hoping the economy behaves. But the landscape has changed. Inflation, taxation, global instability and the sheer speed of technological growth mean the old model is no longer enough. Here’s the part most people never learn: Retirement isn’t a number. It’s a strategy. And the women who understand this are the ones who buy back their time decades earlier. When you blend traditional wealth vehicles with strategic crypto exposure, you create something the average person simply doesn’t have - asymmetric upside. That means your downside is capped, but your upside is uncapped. It means your future doesn’t rely on a government fund, a bank, or a boss. If you’re serious about a retirement plan that actually gives you freedom, here’s what to start thinking about: • Diversification that makes sense in this era Not everything belongs in property or super. A portion in Bitcoin, a portion in regulated assets, a portion in passive income streams. Modern portfolios look different. • Time in the market beats timing the market A simple DCA strategy over the next 5–10 years can outperform the traditional “work until 67” path entirely. • Self-custody equals sovereignty Most people don’t retire wealthy because they never owned their assets — they outsourced their power. Crypto flips that. No middleman. No gatekeeper. • Long-term assets > short-term hype The goal isn’t to get rich quick. It’s to retire free. That requires patience, education and a plan. If you want to age well, retire early or simply create more options than your parents ever had, crypto isn’t optional anymore. It’s part of the modern retirement strategy. If you want help mapping out your structure, your buckets, and the safest way to store and grow your assets, you’re in the right place here.
