How accountants can build personal wealth

How accountants can build personal wealth

Author: Momentum Media July 10, 2026 Duration: 25:51

In this special episode of Accountants Daily Insider, produced in partnership with The InvestorKit Group, we explore the paradox of accountants being able to build successful businesses, but simultaneously struggling to generate wealth for themselves, and how they can look to change this in the new financial year.

Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with The InvestorKit Group founder and CEO Arjun Paliwal about: 

  • His personal wealth creation journey.
  • How and why he believes accountants delay wealth creation for themselves.
  • Why the skills required to building a successful business don't always translate to one's personal financial success, and why accountants aren't always leveraging their advantages properly.
  • The big mistakes accountants make regarding their own finances. 
  • Lessons that accountants can learn, and what they should be valuing right now. 
  • How best accountants can get started on this journey in FY27.
