Your Hosts

Andrew Finnie

I built a career in technology sales while simultaneously growing a real estate portfolio—working two jobs for years in an effort to stay ahead of inflation and ongoing monetary debasement. But even with discipline and drive, I began to question whether traditional investments could truly preserve long-term wealth.

Discovering Bitcoin shifted everything. Its fixed supply, decentralised nature, and self-sovereign qualities reframed how I think about value and security across generations.

Today, I work with The Bitcoin Adviser, guiding people from their first purchase through to secure, collaborative security and long-term planning. I also host the Northern Beaches Bitcoin Meetup, where I’m fortunate to connect with people at all stages of their journey. It’s a privilege—and I keep an open-door policy for anyone seeking clarity, guidance, or just a good conversation about Bitcoin.

With over a decade as the Operations Manager for a northern beaches security company, I developed policies, mitigated risks, and resolved mission-critical issues. Yet, I came to realise that traditional career paths and savings strategies alone wouldn't secure the future I wanted.

Discovering and understanding Bitcoin marked a turning point that fundamentally changed my understanding of wealth and financial resilience.

Today, I work on advancing Bitcoin in Australia through facilitating local meetups, and through my work as the CEO of the Australian Bitcoin Industry Body.
