Is it really a money hack if it leaves you wondering whether you’re saving money… or just signing up for a fancier kind of debt? This week, we’re unpacking the financial mystery that is the novated lease & whether they’re a money win or just marketing spin. We cover how they work, when they make sense, and the sneaky traps to watch out for. Then we spiral (in the best way) into the classic quarter-life crisis: passion vs pay cheque. A community member is tempted to swap her secure, well-paying job for a career that lights her up and promises all the shiny lifestyle perks... but with kids in the mix, the pay cut comes with a whole extra layer of complexity. So of course we had to give our two cents and ask the rest of the community for theirs too. And because it’s Friday, we’ve got all your favourites; money wins from our incredible community, broke tips you’ll actually want to steal, and a healthy dose of chaos to wrap your week right!

PSA: If you want to treat yourself to the $60 facial we raved about from L’Occitane... here’s the link. You won’t regret it. And don't forget the $60 is redeemable on face care products on the day. Money win!

Ready for more laughs, lessons, and unhinged money chats? Check out our oh-so-bingeable Friday Drinks playlist. Listen here.
