It starts as a simple question: should I buy a house or invest in the share market? What begins as a classic money dilemma quickly unravels into a much bigger conversation... about pressure, identity, and whether the goals we’re chasing are even ours to begin with. Plus, we tackle a seriously juicy DM about uprooting your entire family for a “life-changing” job (that may only last a few years), whether commuting ruins your happiness, and why it might be time to outsource your vacuuming. Oh, and there’s also a heated musical theatre debate and some spicy ADHD brain revelations in there too.WANT LEARN HOW TO INVEST? The Investing Masterclass is here.

What do you do when your entire career plan falls apart.... and you're 26, jobless, and living back with your parents? This week’s Money Diary is the plot twist we didn’t see coming: our diarist went all in on her dream to join the Army as a psychologist, only to face a medical discharge that left her completely derailed. With no plan B, she found herself burned out, broke, and scrambling. But that’s not where her story ends. Fast forward: she’s in a meaningful career, investing like a pro, and just bought her first investment property with her boyfriend. We’re talking big glow-up energy, with money habits to match.

This week, we’re talking about one of the biggest money traps out there: car finance. It seems simple... buy the car, pay it off... but what if the way you’re financing it is quietly costing you thousands? From mortgage refinancing to dealership loans, Victoria breaks down the smart ways (and not-so-smart ones) to fund your next car, and the red flags to look out for before you sign anything. And we've got a heated child support DM that had us all fuming. When a co-parent uses child support as ammo against their ex, what’s fair game, and what crosses the line? We get deep into emotional manipulation, kids' financial literacy, and how to protect your peace (and your children’s) when the other parent is being... not so financially kind. Plus, it's Friday so there's all the unhinged money chats you know and love. WANT LEARN HOW TO INVEST? The Investing Masterclass is here. Ready for more laughs, lessons, and unhinged money chats?

When over 50% of a portfolio's offshore assets are USD-denominated, currency risk isn't just a theoretical issue—it can be a real drag on performance. In episode 75 of the Portfolio Construction Podcast Series, Paul O'Connor (Netwealth Head of Investment Management & Research) speaks with Tom Averill, Managing Director of Rochford Capital, about how investors can more effectively manage USD exposure—especially with the AUD near the low end of its long-term range. They discuss why traditional hedging tools often fall short, how the Rochford Leveraged Long AUD Fund provides targeted FX exposure through OTC derivatives, and why this can be a more accurate, scalable, and tax-efficient solution than switching between hedged and unhedged funds. Also covered: the macroeconomic outlook for the Australian dollar, implications of the US credit downgrade, the growing structural role of China, and how geopolitical shifts are reshaping global currency dynamics.

“Wait… what the heck is a PDS?!” That's the question that kicks off a hilariously relatable and wildly entertaining episode of The Ben and Skin Show on 97.1 The Eagle.Join Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray as they dive headfirst into the chaotic world of Texas weather coverage, where new meteorological terms seem to pop up faster than a summer thunderstorm. From the mysterious rise of “tornadic activity” to the baffling overuse of “PDS” (that's “Particularly Dangerous Situation” — or as Skin's wife hilariously guessed, “Pretty Darn Serious”), the crew breaks down the absurdity of weather lingo with their signature wit and charm.Key Moments You Can't Miss:
Baas kommer med et dilemma som faktisk er fra virkeligheten. Hvordan forteller man en 8-, 14- og 23-åring om hvordan barn blir til? Hva synes jenter om gutter som danser ballett? Er det overraskende attraktivt med PDS (post-dusj-selfie) og glinsende hud i syden? Hva gjør man når kompisen har vært utro på ferie og ikke vil fortelle det til dama?Anonymt skjema for innsendelse: https://forms.gle/j9rAaF7jvgsHWoiS6
Hoe overleef je een barbecue met darmklachten? Tips voor vrouwen met PDS, SIBO of een gevoelige buik.Beschrijving:Barbecueën met vrienden of familie kan heerlijk zijn, maar als je last hebt van PDS, SIBO of andere darmklachten, kan het ook een bron van stress en fysieke klachten zijn. In deze aflevering deel ik concrete tips, geef ik uitleg over waar de klachten vandaan kunnen komen — zoals histamineproblemen, vetverteringsproblemen of FODMAP-gevoeligheden — en help ik je om zonder buikpijn te genieten van een heerlijke zomeravond.Je ontdekt: • Wat er precies misgaat bij veelgebruikte barbecue-ingrediënten zoals gemarineerd vlees, rauwkost en sausjes • Welke voedingsmiddelen vrouwen met darmklachten het vaakst triggeren — en waarom • Wat je wél kunt eten, zonder opgeblazen buik of krampen • Hoe je een eigen, veilige en lekkere barbecuebox samenstelt • En: een geweldige FODMAP-arme vervanger voor knoflook en ui — namelijk asafoetida
She thought she was good with money. Her salary was solid. Her bills were paid. She was even traveling. Life looked fine... until it wasn’t. This week’s Money Diary is all about the slow realisation that earning well doesn’t mean you’re building wealth.

That was the moment everything changed. She started tracking every dollar and bought a place to call her own doing the work to build a future she's proud of.

But then came chronic health issues, three kids, and two cancer diagnoses... and suddenly the plan didn’t matter.

You’ve planned your budget, built your emergency fund, and followed all the financial advice... but what happens when life throws something so big, so chaotic, that none of it is enough? In this ep we're joined by special guests, and the writers of new book Broken Brains, Jamila Rizvi and Rosie Waterland. Two women whose lives were turned upside down by illness, trauma, and the brutal reality of trying to keep your head above water when your brain and body won’t cooperate, and the bills keep coming anyway. We talk about the invisible costs of being unwell, the gap between public support and real-life needs, and the quiet shame that follows financial instability and even lasagna inequality (yes, really). It’s raw, it’s funny, it’s deeply human, and it might be exactly what you need to hear right now. Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of serious mental illness, trauma, childhood abuse, psychiatric care, and financial distress. Please listen with care, and know that support is available. If you or someone you know is struggling, contact Lifeline at 13 11 14 or visit Beyond Blue.

Navigating PCS Chaos, Saving Money, and Finding Adventure! PCSing is a constant in military life, often bringing stress, extra costs, and confusion. But it doesn't have to be a nightmare! In this episode, we dive deep into practical tips and strategies to help you survive your next Permanent Change of Station (PCS), save money, and maybe even make it an adventure. We cover everything from getting your paperwork in order to leveraging financial benefits and preparing your family for the journey. In this episode, we discuss key strategies for managing your PCS: Getting Organized & Paperwork: The importance of physical binders and electronic backups for documents. Tips for outprocessing checklists and hand-carrying essential items like orders, Power of Attorneys, birth certificates, passports, and social security cards. Keep vital documents separate from movers. Financially Preparing: The crucial need to start saving cash early for unreimbursed expenses. Access to liquid money helps with stress management and avoiding debt. Cutting expenses is the first step to saving. Understanding Financial Benefits: Dislocation Allowance (DLA): An entitlement can be taken as an advance upfront (not a loan). Rates vary by pay grade and dependents (e.g., O-5 w/ dependents $5,339, E-4 w/ dependents $3,400 in 2025). PCS Pay Advance: Option for up to one month's base pay, interest-free, paid back over 12 months. A tool for necessary situations, better than high-interest loans. Moving Your Stuff (HHG government move vs. PPM): Options include full government shipment (through TMO) or the Personally Procured Move (PPM). A partial PPM is recommended for conus moves to get paid for weight in your car. A full PPM offers significant profit potential by paying you the government's cost (examples mentioned: Jamie's $14,000 profit in 2023, and potential $10,000 profit in 2025). Challenge misinformation about PPM rules by referencing the JTR. Temporary Living Expenses (TLE) & Temporary Living Allowance (TLA): TLE (CONUS to CONUS, CONUS to OCONUS, or OCONUS to CONUS variants): Max $290/day, limited to 21 days, can be split between old and new PDS. Can be used for M&IE even when staying with family/friends. TLA (OCONUS): Up to 60 days upon arrival, 10 days upon departure. Covers lodging plus M&IE. Reference the JTR due to common misinformation. Prioritize minimizing stress over maximizing per diem. Preparing Your Family: Frame the move as an adventure. Acknowledge feelings (sadness, excitement) for everyone. Involve older kids in packing. Remember it's a team effort. Decluttering: Less stuff makes moving easier, especially with PPM. Reduces mental stress. Try methods like the hanger trick, Marie Kondo ("spark joy"), or the "poop test" for toys. Holding a garage sale can generate extra cash. Smart Travel & Leave: Explore circuitous travel or taking leave en route by getting it on your orders. PCS is a prime opportunity to take leave between assignments. Can take leave before departing or upon arrival. Understand BH timing. Inventory & Support: Video and photograph your belongings for inventory in case of loss or damage. You are not alone. Lean on your support network, friends, family, or sponsor for help.

Ever felt like you’re doing everything right with money… and still wondering where it all went? This week’s Money Diarist shares what it’s really like to feel stuck in a cycle of emotional spending, hidden purchases, and guilt — even while working hard toward big financial goals. She found herself secretly spending $500 a fortnight, avoiding her bank app, and feeling like she’d never break the habit. But with some hard truths, a little therapy, and a seriously smart savings system, she turned it around — managing to save $60,000 and start building the future she actually wanted. We also unpack life with a $1.1 million mortgage, how she’s balancing career dreams with financial goals, and yes… whether that designer handbag really counts as an “investment.” Press play, this is your reminder that even if it feels hard right now, change is always possible.

It’s one thing to feel bad about your own money decisions… but what if it’s your parents making you feel worse? This week, we’re diving into why family opinions about how you spend, save, and handle your money hit harder than they should, and how to shake off the guilt so you can make decisions that actually work for you (not just to keep the peace at family dinners).

And when your real estate agent offers advice, should you listen… or trust your own research? Plus, the usual chaos: slightly rogue broke tips, some brilliant money wins, and a very important conversation about whether IKEA meatballs count as financial self-care.
