Performer Nikki Webster is about to open her own dance studio.<\/b><\/p>\n
What was your first job?<\/b>
\nBeing in the pantomime Cinderella in Sydney when I was five.<\/p>\n
What did you get paid? <\/b>
\nProbably about $200 for the whole season.<\/p>\n
Are you a saver or a spender? <\/b>
\nI’m a huge spender on friends and family, for myself I’m a saver.<\/p>\n
What do you spend your money on? <\/b>
\nOther than bills and clothes, most of my money goes on investing in my music and setting up the new dance studio.<\/p>\n
How do you save? <\/b>
\nI try to set aside a certain amount from each job and put it into a saving account that earns good interest.<\/p>\n
What was your worst purchase? <\/b>
\nMy last laptop. I got rid of it because it had to be reformatted so many times.<\/p>\n
Credit cards are: a) great; b) helpful; c) a poor investment; d) work of the devil<\/b>
\nB) Helpful<\/p>\n
Why? <\/b>
\nYou don’t have to carry around cash to make big purchases.<\/p>\n
Does budgeting work for you? <\/b>
\nI think it depends – if I’m budgeting for something I want then yes, but if I’m budgeting just to get by until the next thing comes up then it doesn’t work too well for me.<\/p>\n
What’s the best piece of investment advice you have heard? <\/b>
\nTo believe in what you’re investing into. Also, always have a great accountant.<\/p>\n
What’s the best piece of investment advice you have acted on? <\/b>
\nTo put away a lump sum of money that you don’t need to touch for a period of 6-12 months, into a term deposit that has a good return.<\/p>\n
If I was given $20, 000 I would… <\/b>
\nProbably deposit on a property for a dance studio so I wouldn’t have to rent.<\/p>\n
If I was given $20, 000 I would invest in… <\/b>
\nMy new album.<\/p>\n
