Which one makes more money sense? Smashing down your mortgage faster, or putting that money to work in shares? This week’s Friday Drinks opens with one of the most divisive money questions we get, and Victoria gets very honest about how she approaches it in her own life. She walks through what she prioritises when building wealth, the maths she actually uses to make sure every dollar is working it's hardest for her, and why the answer that feels obvious, isn’t always the one that makes you richer. Then things get spicy. Like, properly spicy. A community member slid into our DMs convinced her late father-in-law’s partner is lying about his will and the real cost of the funeral. We unpack what really happens when someone dies without a will, where money goes first, how estates are handled, and what to do when your gut says something’s off but the situation is already emotionally loaded. And because it's Friday we’ve got all the usual fun and chaos you love to start the weekend the right.
