    5. Shares - What Are They and How They Work

    Share basics. We talk about what shares are at a really basic level. The what, how and why and relate it to personal finance.  Shares aren't a tangible thing, like a car or a house, and it is hard to understand how they work, but hopefully I can explain it in a way that helps you conceptualise it, and how you can use them to build wealth.

    3. Debt

    This episode talks about debt and ways to pay off debt. We speak about different between good debt and bad debt and how bad debt can be detrimental to building wealth. We then go through how to get on top of bad debt and how to pay it off. I use the example of paying off the following bad debt loans: credit card $2k, 20%pa, $80monthly repayment; car loan $10k, 5% $250monthly; and personal loan $5k, 6%, $150 monthly. Always seek professional financial advice for your personal circumstances.
