Got a prenup? Who manages the accounts? Is your name on the mortgage, or your partner’s? 

Author and journalist Sarah Catherall tells us how to break up well—after all, she literally wrote the book. While the emotional fallout of a separation is hard to prepare for, Sarah shares some of the steps you can take before and after a breakup to make the process as easy as possible.

Hopeless romantics, beware—Sarah reckons everyone who’s coupled up should have a hard think about their economic stake in the relationship. 

“Is your economic power equal? Do you know, is your name on the title, is your name on the bank accounts? Do you have a mutual plan for wealth creation, or saving plan? Understand what's where.”

Plus, we learn about ‘bird nesting’, the trend emerging from the struggles of getting divorced during a cost of living crisis.

More Than Money is a limited podcast series exploring the wealth choices that change us. In these conversations, Kiwi legends give us a revealing look at one important money decision that helped determine where they are today: the strokes of genius, the near-misses, and the tough calls.

Episodes drop every Monday and Thursday in January. Subscribe to the Shared Lunch feed so you don’t miss a thing.
