The RBA has once again hiked the cash rate, now to 4.1%, with two more hikes expected and markets pricing in 4.6% by December 2026. The driving force is the Middle East conflict, which has led to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint for 20% of the world's entire oil supply. Oil has spiked from $70 to $104 a barrel. With zero oil tankers, only two refineries, and real fuel reserves of around 10 to 18 days, Australia is significantly more exposed to this kind of supply disruption than most people realise. Much of what is counted in official reserve figures is fuel still in...

In this episode of Money for Life Mastermind, George and Charmaine sit down with Greg and Suzanne to unpack:

  • What went wrong — and why they kept going

  • How they handled a $30K valuation shortfall

  • The strategy shift that turned the deal around
