"I'd been investing for twenty years, but after I retired I noticed how much I'd relied on having colleagues to talk things through with. That sounding board just disappeared. Teaminvest gave that back to me — people who understand the same stage of life and ask the right questions."

"There was a moment last year when I was sitting on a decision about whether to reduce my property exposure and move more into equities. I had the spreadsheets, I'd done the reading — but I just needed to hear how other people who'd actually been through it were thinking. That's exactly what I got."

This is a 15-minute conversation — nothing more. We'll ask where you're at with your investing, what's working, and what's keeping you up at night.
There's no pitch, no pressure, and no obligation. You won't be handed off to an adviser or asked to commit to anything.
If Teaminvest sounds like a fit for where you are, we'll explain what membership looks like. If it's not right for you, we'll tell you that honestly.
A genuine 15-minute conversation. Not a sales call.

I wrote it to help fellow investors improve their returns using the Conscious Investor Method — the same methodology used by Teaminvest members, whom I coach. It has made a significant difference to my own returns and to those of many members.

Throughout the book, I explain the three key financial statements and the ratios every investor should understand. To bring these to life, I use Australian vehicle accessory manufacturer ARB Corporation Ltd as a case study — their financials are refreshingly straightforward.
Note that ARB's figures update twice a year: interim results at the end of December, and annual results at the end of June.

Tip: change 105 to 115.
Total return should be 6.7% (4.0% dividend + 2.7% retained growth), not 10.7%, which double counts the dividend (paid out of earnings).
TNE's daily turnover of 740K shares out of 372M ordinary shares is 0.2%, not 20%. So 99.8% remain passive.
Table 9 quotes ARB's EPS & SPS as 1.40¢ & 7.642¢ per share. They should be $1.40 and $7.642 respectively.
