When it comes to retirement...you should get excited!
15 July 2017
Retirement is considered, by most of us, as something that just happens at the end of our working life...but it doesn’t have to be.

Claire MacKay, Director and Head of Advice at Quantum Financial, talks with Mike Lynch and co-host Kylie Kwong about how retirement can be the most exciting and fulfilling time in your life.

Chartered Accountants ANZ, Future Inc. Paper: The Future of Work
14 MAY 2017 · Big Data and AI are part of our everyday lexicon.
We're inundated with so many stories about how our lives will be changed for the better, and at the same time, we're told that big data and AI will adversely affect and threaten our very livelihood.
The mixed messages in the media are confusing, to say the least.
Many industries and professions alike are predicted to be non-existent or shrink into irrelevancy in the next decade.
Sounds pretty bleak, right?
In this episode, Ted Talk Speaker and Author, Tim Leberecht, joins Hosts Lee Sujanto and Mike Lynch to discuss how romance is the key to winning and succeeding in the era of new technology.
