Riddle me this: why are people pleasers framed as the problem? Surely, we should be turning our focus back onto the boundary-pushers!

This week on Friday Drinks, we’re coming in hot. Join Victoria, Jess and Bec to discuss the community’s best Money Wins, Broke Tips, and a Question of the Week that starts off bookish, but quickly gets… wild? You’ll have to hear it to believe it. 

The gang also covers this week’s community dilemmas concerning Capital Gains Tax (CGT) on your primary residence, and a rather juicy DM from a bride-to-be who wants to know who actually has a say in her wedding plans. Fiscal and familial drama ensues.

Credit cards. Personal loans. Buy Now, Pay Later. Australians are in debt in a big way. But, there’s always a way out. 

This Deep Dive is dedicated to helping you or someone you know eliminate debt and learn how to avoid it for good… and, all on a low income. Join Victoria for a special solo episode to firstly, shed the shame around borrowing money (by learning just how much everyone else has borrowed), then hear how to navigate your way out of debt using proven cashflow and budgeting tactics for low income earners. 

We’ll cover why people get into debt in the first place, the dark design of repayments, and end on a few examples to demonstrate how you might escape debt for good. Get ready for the bounceback, ‘cause the recovery is real and always within reach.

How To Pay Off Debt On a Low Income

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/8a47b709-a7a8-4efc-964b-b4c000b9fff3/transcript

At 26, this week’s Money Diarist has nearly $40,000 invested, $46,000 in super and has just bought a six-bedroom home on 25 acres with her mum and younger brother.

There are horses. There are stables. There’s a riding arena. Honestly, she’s doing pretty well. But the interesting part of this story isn’t actually how much she’s managed to build. It’s how difficult it still feels to spend any of it. She grew up in a financially comfortable family until her parents separated when she was 10. Her father’s financial abuse left her mum working three jobs to keep life as normal as possible for her children. There were nights when there wasn’t enough money for dinner, but her mum somehow managed to turn those moments into childhood memories of going to friends’ houses for tea. As she got older and realised what had actually been happening, money became safety. Birthday money was hidden away for a rainy day. Unplanned purchases could send her spiralling with anxiety. And even now, with an emergency fund, investments and money specifically saved for something she needs, spending it can still feel incredibly uncomfortable.

Today she’s a paramedic earning around $90,000 base and almost $130,000 last year with penalties and overtime. She invests $400 a fortnight, salary sacrifices another $200 into super and has just taken on a $1.57 million mortgage with her mum and brother. She’s done an incredible job learning how to save and invest. Now she’s learning that sometimes being good with money also means giving yourself permission to actually enjoy it.
