Why you need to stop teaching your kids how to drive...

My Father taught me to drive,

a tale about the importance of getting the correct education.

When I turned sixteen, I got my learners’ permit and my father, like so many dads before him, was given the duty of taking me out on the road for driving lessons.

I love my dad, he’s always done his best for me. But I was unfortunately asking him to do something that he wasn’t trained for. He’s never held any formal driver training qualifications. If the truth be known he’s never even had a driving lesson.

There were plenty of tense moments out on the road between us. So, to stop Dad and I falling out, Mum stepped in and arranged for me to have a professional driving instructor teach me. This initially annoyed Dad because his pride took a bit of a dent.

But the instructor was brilliant. She had a well thought out teaching plan. With skills in communication, listening, adaptability, empathy for my skill level and the patience to be able to explain. I was therefore more relaxed, so I was open to absorbing and retaining information. I learnt a lot from those formal driving lessons.

If you have ever attended any of the Blue Wealth Property events you will know that no-one provides education like we do. They are down to earth, with real knowledge you can apply.

Over the years we have quite literally had hundreds of clients come back to us with requests for more education, so with over 12 months of hard work building it, we proudly launched the Blue Wealth Property Academy.

Blue Wealth Property Academy is an advanced level of learning, where the public will gain the knowledge needed to become proficient in everything about property investment.

The Academy has been constructed by industry experts to help all attendees smash their property goals and create long-term wealth.

The Academy gives us much more time to cover some seriously high-level topics, explain concepts and go delving into the nitty-gritty of each one.

I have now spent nearly 30 years training and teaching us ‘grownups’ how to do things. I believe that having and sharing our knowledge is an essential step in helping establish trust for those building a long-term plan.

Unfortunately, I have seen incorrect and outdated advice about locations, loans and structures handed down by well-meaning family elders or that friend-of-a-friend.

It is said that “You shouldn’t teach your relatives how to drive”. So, with that in mind please come and take a look around the Academy website…maybe book your kids in…
