They just wanted $104K in passive income. A comfortable retirement. A helping hand for the kids. 

Instead? They ended up with a silver bullet strategy: eight regional properties, over $1.1 million in debt, constant tenant issues, and a driveway that cost more than a year’s rent. 😬 

In this episode, Ben is joined by Head of Property Wealth Planning at Empower Wealth, David Robertson (or Robbo) to unpack a real case study of a silver bullet property strategy gone completely off the rails. 

Here’s what we debunk:  
⚠️ Promised high yields? ✅ 
⚠️ Sold on positive cash flow from Day 1? ✅ 
⚠️ No proper planning, no risk assessment, no diversification? Unfortunately… ✅ 

It’s a cautionary tale of what happens when buyer’s agents chase volume, not value — and why skipping the strategy step can cost you years of lost opportunity, tens of thousands in maintenance surprises, and even your dream retirement.
