Your Dad's Investment Advice Made Him Rich - Following It Will Make You Poor

Your dad bought a house, paid into a pension, and put his savings in the stock market. That advice built his wealth. The problem is the world that made it work no longer exists and following the same playbook today is quietly costing millennials years of financial progress.

In this episode Myles runs the numbers on three investments your dad would have recommended buy to let property, Apple stock, and Bitcoin starting with the same £100,000. The results are uncomfortable.

In this episode:

• Why your dad's financial playbook genuinely worked for his generation and exactly why the world that made it possible has gone
• A straight comparison of what £100,000 returns across a buy to let property, Apple stock and Bitcoin over 10 years the numbers side by side
• Why Bitcoin in 2026 is the equivalent of buying property in 1990 the same asymmetric bet, a different asset, and still early enough to matter

I built a free calculator that shows exactly what consistent monthly Bitcoin investing could do to your wealth over 5, 10 or 20 years. It's called the Steady Stack Calculator — punch in what you can afford to put in each month and see what the numbers actually look like at the other end. Most people are genuinely surprised.
