It’s the million-dollar question so many investors ask: what’s a better investment, the stock market shares or property?
Outside superannuation, property and shares are the two most common ways Australians build wealth.
Some find deciding which to invest in is a bit of a hard decision. If someone tells you only shares or only property, run away fast. That probably means they have a vested interest.
You’ll find that in different stages of your life, or different times when you need asset growth and cash flow, different types of investments will be more suitable for you.
In today’s show with our regular
guest Pete Wargent, we’ll tell you the pros and cons of both asset
classes.
We’re also going to explain when they’re right for you, and when you shouldn’t be investing in a particular asset class.
Property or Shares?
Property and shares are different but complementary asset classes.
While their long-term performances may be similar, they are very, very different as asset classes.
The tax system in Australia tends to favour people investing in property.
