We've all been there... When the vacay with your besties finally makes it out of the group chat, only to find that tensions are rising because you're all on different pages about money... Whether it be the friend that always wants to split the bill evenly despite consistently ordering the most expensive items, or the one that's eating everyone's leftovers but not ordering a meal for themselves. Each of these situations can be avoided (and many more in between) by having a simple conversation before you jet set off into the Euro sunset.On today's episode, Maddy and Sophie chat to Alex Hourigan from Two Broke Chicks about their travel money saving hacks, travel story disasters, and how to avoid them.

Ever caught yourself wondering, how on earth do they afford it? Well, there's a good chance it's thanks to the bank of Mum and Dad! And yet, whether or not your friends are getting money from their parents is very rarely spoken about. Of course, there is a huge amount of privilege inherent in this conversation (which is probably why it's not common to say anything!), but when we avoid these conversations, we also fall into the trap of comparing ourselves and wondering what we're doing "wrong". With cost of living challenges and house prices continuing to rise, more and more young people are relying on an inheritance or significant financial windfall from their parents to help them get ahead in life.That's why on today's episode, we speak to none other than Maddy's mum Fi and Soph's dad Tony about how they, as our parents, would hypothetically want us to raise a conversation with them about inheritance and borrowing money, in away that is respectful to each individual's financial situation.

You can't put a price on friendship, right??? Whilst our hearts are saying yes to every new restaurant, Saturday night gig, or weekend away that someone sent into the Whatsapp group, our brains are frantically subtracting what another night out might set us back with just one week left until our next paycheque. On today's episode we chat with Gyan Yankovich, author of Just Friends, about the cost of friendship. We discuss the changing dynamics amongst friends in your late 20s and early 30s, as money priorities can shift depending on whether you're saving for kids or stockpiling for your next holiday. We talk about the financial cost of making new friends, when the emotional cost is already high of hanging out with people you don't know that well. And we discuss why having conversations about money with your friends can be such a valuable and important thing to do. But the conversation doesn't end here...

Whether it's as boring as the household bills or as exciting as nights out and holidays with friends - the sad reality is that all of these things cost more if you're single.

Do you have a million-dollar idea? Always dreamed of working for yourself? Starting a business can be one of the most exciting and rewarding experiences, but where do you begin?

There's a lot to consider before you officially take the leap, and you need a game plan! Today we chat with Lucy Wark, co-founder of sexual wellness brand Normal and career skills platform Fuzzy, as well as one of the founding Vinemakers at Grapevine, which aims to combat sexual harassment, bullying and bias in Australian startups.

How much does it actually cost to have a baby? On today's episode Rachel Maksimovic, solo mum and co-host of her own podcast Mothering on my Own shares how much it has cost her. As we enter our late 20s, we have started to feel a societal pressure to consider whether or not we want to have kids. With more people getting married and moving onto the "next step" of starting a family, we always thought that having a baby was the norm. But the more conversations we have, the more we realise that having a baby is a financial luxury (in fact, more than 50% of Australians have reported this).Five years on from having her son Lenny, Rach shares with us how she's navigated the financial challenges that have arisen with solo parenting, and how she's been able to lean on her community to save money and support others, all by having more open and honest conversations. But the conversation doesn't end here... Parents, we want your thoughts!How much has it cost you to have a baby?What have been the most unexpected expense?Have you experienced raising a child on your own?

Don't get us wrong, we absolutely love, love and there is no better experience that watching people closest to you tie the knot, but wedding culture has become, well, expensive.The other shift is that your social media slowly becomes more "adult", commenting congratulations on the new house, rather than posting the good old fashion party pic (shout out to the Jeffrey Campbell era)!This week, we chat with the powerhouse, Rhi Joyce, about navigating comparison as we move into our 30s. Whether it be budgeting for, or working out when it is ok to say no, or setting realistic expectations for your property goals so that you don't overwhelm your bank balance - Rhi provides a refreshing perspective on navigating it all.But the conversation doesn't end here... we want your thoughts!What are your thoughts on wedding culture?

The saying goes that comparison is the thief of joy. But when it comes to your finances, comparison can also seriously derail your financial goals. It's true, most of us will experience the lifestyle creep to some degree throughout our lifetime... particularly in a time where comparison is rife on social media. Who can blame you if your first thought when receiving a pay rise is to treat yourself!This week, Mads and Soph chat with Dyl Buckley about each of their experiences "keeping up with the Jones'". We discuss how Dyl's money mentality has been shaped by his family experiences growing up, how he navigated fluctuating pay as a football player, some of his biggest money mistakes (and what he learnt!), and how to align your spending with things you truly value.But the conversation doesn't end here... we want your thoughts!Have you succumbed to the lifestyle creep?

The saying, "don't broach topics of sex, religion, or politics," is widely known, and truthfully, money has consistently found a place within that. The fact of the matter is, money is still a taboo topic, and we aren't properly educated on how to approach conversations about our finances. This summer series is here to break down that barrier, and give you the conversation starters you need to broach money chats in your own life. This week, Mads and Soph are chatting with the wonderful and very transparent Kath Ebbs. In part one they ask how social norms influence our views on money, and if you'd be open to splitting the bill with friends based on your income or savings balance. In part two, they discuss life as a freelancer, including the dilemma of navigating how much to charge, and valuing yourself as "the brand" versus "the person". But the conversation doesn't end here... we want your thoughts!Would you split the bill based on what you got paid?Have you struggled navigating pay as a freelancer?Send your thoughts to these questions or other general thoughts about any of the discussion in the episode to yigc@equitymates.com for our brand new newsletter.

Part Two. In October of 2020, Maddy and Soph were inspired to start a podcast about investing to help make it more accessible for their friends. One of their inspirations? Cathie Wood. A true trailblazer in the investing world, Cathie is a revolutionary female founder setting out to change the world. Her tenacity to challenge the status quo has earned her a place amongst the world's greatest investors.After almost three years of joking that one day Cathie might join the pair on the pod, YIGC have turned that vision into a reality.In part two of two, the pair put some hard hitting questions to Cathie about ARK's investment strategy. Maddy and Sophie ask why ARK doesn't have a dedicated ESG fund, how to differentiate a fad from future when analysing companies, and why Cathie believes Bitcoin will hit a price target of US$1.4m. If you're curious about where the opportunities may lie in ESG, AI and Bitcoin, then this episode is for you. Just a foreword: in today's episode we will be referencing ARK's research, the Big Ideas Report. This report highlights the 5 key disruptive innovation platforms that ARK believes will have the most transformative impacts on the future of society. For a more fulfilling and engaging listen, have a read of the report here: https://ark-invest.com/big-ideas-2023/.
