They also discuss whether it’s worthwhile to withdraw your investments to fund a business idea.  Join us for another playful episode featuring a silly Question of the Week, plus, Money Wins and Broke Tips, including how to extend the life of your continental cucumbers.

    The “Hey Girl” Message That Saved Her From the Wrong Marriage

    Growing up this week's money diarist remembers boiling water on the stove for baths because the gas had been disconnected, landlords turning up at the front door looking for unpaid rent, and feeling like she never quite fit in because everyone else seemed to have things her family couldn't afford. Determined to create a different life for herself, she worked hard, saved aggressively, finished university and built what she thought was her dream future with her long-term partner. Then, two months before their wedding, she received a message request from his ex-girlfriend. The kind that starts with: "I know you're about to get married, but..." What happened next changed the entire course of her life. We talk about calling off a wedding, navigating a breakup during COVID, buying a home on her own at 28, becoming a mum sooner than expected, and the money lessons that finally clicked after discovering the She's on the Money community. This conversation is about resilience, second chances, and learning that sometimes the life falling apart is actually making room for something much better. By the end of this episode, you'll be very glad she never made it down that aisle. New here?

    She’s Financially Irresponsible. Why Should My Sister Inherit More?

    Say it with me: equal isn’t always equitable. On Friday Drinks, Jess and Bec cover a very juicy DM concerning inheritances, where one sister has received a lifetime of financial support, while the other is fighting for what she believes is her fair share of the will. Is it considered equal for the more independent child to get a larger share in the end or is there more to it than that? This episode is also packed with insights for the side hustlers and how they might allocate their earnings. Do you split it into particular percentages (e.g. bills, investments, play) or is it all simply ‘fun money’? Tune in for Broke Tips, Money Wins, how you might split your pizza and the beginnings of Bec’s merch line(!?).  KICKING OFF A SIDE HUSTLE? Check out our playlists to help you get started.

  6. She's 25, Owns a Home, Has No HECS Debt and Still Thinks She's a B- With Money

    She's 25, Owns a Home, Has No HECS Debt and Still Thinks She's a B- With Money

    She's 25, owns her home, has paid off her HECS debt, has more than $50,000 in super, is building an investment portfolio and somehow still rated herself a B- when I asked how she felt about her money habits. Growing up in regional Victoria, she got her first job at 14 and never really slowed down. While most of us were spending our weekends hanging out with friends, she was working supermarket shifts, saving for her future and helping her parents renovate investment properties. That work ethic followed her everywhere. Through nursing placements, night shifts, university, a mortgage in her early 20s and a long-distance relationship that somehow survived Melbourne lockdowns. Now she's built a life that's incredibly solid, but what I loved most about this conversation wasn't the numbers. It was her mindset. The way she talks about money feels refreshingly simple. Work hard. Save consistently. Make your money work for you. Repeat. We chat about buying a home at 21, paying off her HECS debt, starting her investing journey, the money lessons she learnt from her parents and grandparents, and why she's already thinking about the financial life she wants to build long before she starts a family. Honestly, this episode is proof that wealth isn't always built through big dramatic decisions. Sometimes it's built one supermarket shift, one mortgage repayment and one very stubborn financial goal at a time. New here?
