  • FIFO Sacrifice or FIFO Success? Building Wealth in the Mining Industry
    May 26 2026

    Are you earning great money in FIFO but struggling to actually build wealth? You could be leaving thousands on the table and not even know it.

    In this episode, our host Adam Schaal sits down with Tegan Larkins, Managing Director of Talent Mining & Minerals and host of The Mining Mum Podcast, to unpack one of the most costly mistakes high-income earners make: not having a financial plan.

    They break down exactly how salary sacrificing works, why the "golden handcuffs" of mining income can trap you, and why so many FIFO workers put off getting educated about money despite the clear financial upside.

    We cover:

    • The real power of salary sacrificing into shares and super—and how it helped Tegan build her home deposit
    • The "golden handcuffs" trap and how high income can actually cost you if you don't have a plan
    • The barriers that stop FIFO workers from getting financially educated (and why most of them aren't as real as you think)
    • How to take action today and start building real wealth
    • Women closing the wealth gap through open conversations about money
    • Why getting interested in your money early can completely change your future

    Whether you're considering FIFO work, already in the industry, or just earning solid income, this episode could be the nudge that helps you stop leaving money on the table.
