Bricked It: The final chapter #190

Send us Fan Mail The whole journey in one place — why an hour with the SAFER system is the most valuable hour you'll spend, why you shouldn't go it alone, and the life I rebuilt on the other side of losing it all. This is the end — short and sweet, exactly as it should be. I bring the whole book home with the simplest of habits: every single time an opportunity comes your way, property or not, spend at least an hour running it through SAFER. Is the strategy right for you? What will you acquir...

Bricked It: The Female Tax and Why Your Money Is Your Responsibility Chapters 8 & 9 #188

Send us Fan Mail Why no woman should outsource her financial future to a partner, the "female tax" quietly draining your savings, and the honest net-worth reckoning that lays the foundation for everything that follows. Two short, sharp chapters this week — and they belong together. Chapter 8, "A Man Is NOT a Financial Plan," is my plea to every woman listening. I share Anya, an intelligent businesswoman who runs her own PR firm yet has no idea what her family has saved or what her husband ear...

Bricked It: The SAFER System, Strategy, Acquisition, Funding, Exit, Repeat Chapter Seven #187

Send us Fan Mail The complete SAFER system — Strategy, Acquisition, Funding, Exit, Repeat — the framework I built after losing almost everything, walked through step by step with the real stories behind each one.

Bricked It: It's All About People Chapter Six #186

Send us Fan Mail People are the most unpredictable part of any investment. The story of a contractor whose gambling brought a project down, and why a good contract — not a handshake — is the safety net that saves you. A hard truth opens Part 2: partner with the wrong people, or without the right contracts, and you'll fail no matter how well you do everything else. Because once you're relying on someone, you've handed over control. I tell the story of Evan, a contractor and close friend of my ...

Bricked It: The Real Deal Chapter Five #185

Send us Fan Mail Why the property millionaires on your feed haven't weathered a storm — and the real, unglamorous story of my own 15 years in property: the accidental wins, the nightmare flat, and the lessons that built the SAFER system. Scroll through Instagram and you'll find no shortage of self-proclaimed property millionaires promising you the pot of gold from a single seminar. This chapter is my answer to all of them. Here's a tip I share early on: run their name through Companies House ...

Bricked It: It's All About Balance Chapter Four #184

Send us Fan Mail Why a balanced financial life — liquidity, tax, priorities, legacy and your relationship with debt — beats chasing any single asset, and the Freedom Triangle that taught me money was only ever one third of the picture. Too much of anything is dangerous — diet, exercise, even water. Investing is no different. This chapter is about balance, and why it's the foundation of freedom rather than the enemy of it. I break down what a genuinely balanced financial life looks like. Liqui...

Bricked It: Forewarned Is Forearmed Chapter Three #183

Send us Fan Mail The five risks every property investor needs to see coming — from chasing shiny pennies and dressing up bad deals to running out of contingency, getting trapped without an exit, and flying too close to the sun. If Chapter 2 was what went wrong, this chapter is how you see it coming. I open with the hardest lesson I learned: mistaking luck for skill. When I started out in Hackney, everything I touched turned to gold — and I believed that was talent. It wasn't. Hackney property...

Bricked It: The Road From Where You Are Chapter Two #182

Send us Fan Mail The honest other half of the story: a £120m portfolio, a partner I should never have trusted, the phone call that exposed it all — and the five mistakes that cost me everything before I built the SAFER system. This is the chapter where I tell you what actually happened. My story is a tragedy in two halves. The first — the meteoric rise — is my first book, Bricking It. By 2017 I had a share in a property portfolio of 110 properties across 10 projects, worth around £120 million...

Bricked It: There's More to This Than Money Chapter One #181

Send us Fan Mail Why fear of financial loss keeps so many of us awake, why property is never a one-size-fits-all answer, and the first look at my SAFER system for building wealth without the sleepless nights. The serialisation begins here — the Introduction and Chapter 1 of Bricked It, read start to finish. I open with the thing nobody likes to admit: fear of financial loss is what keeps us up at 2am. As Chris Voss puts it, nobody loses sleep over gains — it's loss that burrows in and eats at...
