The basics of fixed income & how to invest in it | Blossom

On this episode of Get Started Investing, Bryce and Alec are joined by Dara Hayes… who you might know better by the name DJ Tigerlily. Dara is one of Australia’s most successful DJs… and her day job sees her touring the world, playing some of the biggest clubs across the globe, playing to tens of thousands of people all over the world, from Australia, Asia, Europe and the USA.What you also might not know is Dara is also passionate about ethical investing - she put pen to paper, metaphorically so to speak, and wrote a blog post on this topic back in 2019. She wrote eloquently about the power of voting with our dollars - and how we choose to invest can send a signal to the market. This episode is a deep dive with Dara on all of that today, but first, the guys hear about the beginning of Dara's investing journey, and the lessons she’s picked up on the way.

This is Super Important | Welcome to Super Saturdays

We've been on a round the world trip the last few weeks, talking about why investing beyond Australia's borders is a really good idea. Before we boarded the plane home, Alec and Bryce thought it would be good to hear from an expert. So we gave Emma Kirk from Magellan a call, and she agreed to come on the show and talk about how she started investing. Emma is a Key Account Manager - Listed Funds, for Magellan, an Australian fund manager with just shy of $100 billion in assets under management.
