This episode, Wadzanai Nenzou gives a key investing master class and answers all the important questions – How much should we earn before we can invest? What is an ETF? What about ethical investing?

We’ll answer all and more (and no, please leave the nuts to the squirrels – they’re very cute and hungry).#lifecoachpodcast #betterbigbank

Saving money is like eating kale – we know it’s good for us but we’d much rather just buy chippies instead. This week, we chat with Bendigo Bank expert, Aggie Poliafico on the do’s and don’ts of saving. Plus how to save money and live a life by setting achievable goals and wins – even on a low wage and in the worst economy since the Jurassic era. #lifecoachpodcast #betterbigbank

Imagine if they actually taught us financial literacy in school. Well, they didn’t. So instead, imagine if you could get that basic primer in all things personal finance right now without the textbooks or imminent threat of a lunchtime dacking. Actually don’t imagine that because it’s a reality. And a podcast.Ex-accountant and current comedian, Suren Jayemanne guides us through a bunch of real world, practical tips from our finance-y experts with all the panache that dual profession affords him. Which is surprisingly a lot.All the basics are covered, like how to actually make yourself save, how to face up to your debt and why the Wu Tang Clan told us todiversify our bonds (spoiler alert- we teach you how to start investing). We deep dive into the psychology of money, find out how to be prepared for an uncertain future, and even get in to the nitty gritty of why nobody should be counting themselves out when it comes to owning a house – even people who thought it would be smart to ditch accounting for comedy.Welcome to the Bendigo Bank Life Coach podcast, with your host Suren Jayemanne. Teaching you the dollary doo’s and don’ts of personal finance that they should have taught us at school.#lifecoachpodcast #betterbigbank
