A peek into a hilariously earnest high school time capsule reveals tiny Vic’s fascination with the news and dreams of PwC, New York, and a life well-lived. Spoiler: some of it worked out, but the love life? Let’s just say it’s been a journey. Shifting gears to today’s big money moves, Bitcoin is on a tear, nearing $90k, and we’re dissecting the FOMO, the risks, and why it’s okay to sit on your hands instead of chasing the hype. Meanwhile, Warren Buffett’s $300 billion cash pile has us wondering - what does the Oracle of Omaha know that we don’t?
Plus, we share some all-too-relatable listener stories: from accidentally skipping council rates (oops) to learning the hard way about crypto scams. It’s a crash course in why financial literacy, emergency funds, and a touch of scepticism are your best friends. Sprinkle in some love for long-term investing (shoutout to Buffett) and reflections on the realities of building wealth - slow and steady wins the race.
