We're busy planning our next batch of episodes for you. So do let us know if you have any requests.
In the meantime, over the coming weeks, each of the hosts is going to be sharing one of their favourite episodes.
This week it's one of our very early episodes, 21. I've got £10k what should I do with it.
The great thing about this show was that the principles we apply work whatever sum of money you have. If £1,000 has just landed in your bank account you weren't expecting, or if it's £100,000. Have a listen for the steps we suggest you follow.
One thing to note, this was originally recorded back in 2022. Back then interest rates were a lot lower than they are today in 2024. So it is definitely worth shopping around for bank interest rates. I'm going to caveat that though, the purpose of money held in the bank is not to make money, the main purpose is that it's money you can get your hands on quickly with no risk of value going up and down.Support the Show.

The episode discusses the changes in money habits as people age. They discuss how attitudes towards money can remain constant through life but can become more extreme or display in different ways with age. They also notice a sort of cycle where people in their 50s are highly focused on planning for retirement. Upon reaching the 60s, the strict and mindful planning often takes a backseat as they start indulging more but this changes again as they reach the 70s and the realities of aging set in. By 80s, people tend to focus more on sharing and giving away their wealth. They emphasise the importance of understanding the context of aging loved ones when discussing money and the need for patience and intentionality when making financial decisions.
