In this episode, we're talking about our relationships with money! We discuss our different upbringings and how it’s affected our perspectives on money – Davie shares his experience of growing up ‘poor’ in an Asian household, and Noel with his frugal tendencies that he continues to carry with him. 
We unpack the hot topic of deciding whether to purchase property, rent or travel - and we also discuss the older generation vs. new generation money mentality and parents using their kids as a retirement plan.

Today, we’ve got a special episode where we discuss topics from our own experiences as Asian women! 

We deep dive into the discussions around the challenges of being an eldest daughter, societal and peer pressures when it comes to beauty standards and the ongoing debate around choosing your career versus having kids – and whether or not you should tell your boss about this decision.

Kan, Davie and Noel – who are each business owners, also weigh in from their perspectives.
