  • Love this

    I absolutely love The Curve. I’m a recently divorced single mother in the UK and over the last year or so I’ve had to completely sort out all my finances from rock bottom and have started to regularly invest. Your podcast is really helping me learn huge amounts about investing and have hope for my future finances and I also love all the tangents!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The holiday hangover nobody talks about: your bank account.
Q: How should you prioritize short-term goals versus long-term investing?
You should work backwards from each goal, determine what you can reasonably save after covering essentials, and aim to balance towards long-term investing while still funding the most important short-term goals; if one goal is inflexible, adjust timelines or expectations accordingly.
The holiday hangover nobody talks about: your bank account.
Q: What is a short-term savings goal?
A short-term savings goal is a defined objective you want to achieve within a few months to a few years, such as a holiday or a wedding; it's best to budget for a specific total, then divide by the time frame to determine how much to save each month.
Chat GPT, Claude; meet your FREE rival.
Q: What exactly has Moonshot AI released and why is it important?
They released a large open-source AI model (Kimi K3) that can rival ChatGPT and Claude in capability and is cheaper to operate, backed by the Chinese government, which raises concerns about the control and future of proprietary AI platforms.
The Money Lessons We Were Never Taught (And How to Catch Up in Your 20s and 30s).
Q: What is your investing strategy and how has it evolved?
The guest explains a move from simple dollar-cost averaging into a more nuanced approach called 'curated dollar-cost averaging,' which keeps a core monthly investment but reserves extra cash to deploy during dips, while maintaining a heavy use of low-cost ETFs.
The Leadership Expert Rethinking How We Work, Parent & Show Up, with Dr Ellen Joan Ford.
Q: How should someone ask for flexible arrangements without sounding like they're complaining?
Frame requests as solutions and outcomes, propose a trial period, and show how the requested changes will still meet or exceed required outputs, with a plan to review and adjust after the trial.
