Listen to a few business podcasts and this one is just different in a good way. Not just property but other asset classes which gives a balanced view. Love it!
Love the takeover episodes. Proof financial advice doesn’t have to be dry.
Such a great, informative podcast! I usually struggle to follow/engage in finance topics but these guys really make it easy to follow. I especially enjoy the Takeover segments - the girls are entertaining to listen to but also deliver great finance advice and tips!
Extremely informative and not complicated so makes for easier listening!
