  • The best of the money show

    I would give this a 5 star if it was not for the admin issues with this podcast. Every few weeks all these episodes do not appear on this podcast but on his "Money Show" podcast. Then I use his full show on his other podcast, "Money Show", and then they decide to play all the episodes on "The Best of the money show" podcast again. This has been going on for years. Makes a person crazy. Wake up and fire whoever is managing you podcasts.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Personal Finance: Lifestyle creep: Why a bigger salary never feels like more money
Q: Is one of ETFs or unit trusts cheaper or safer, and how should a beginner choose between them?
ETFs and unit trusts are both broadly safe options; the choice depends on income stability and discipline. For a fixed monthly contribution, unit trusts work well as a set-it-and-forget approach, while ETFs suit irregular contributions because you can add money ad hoc. A diversified mix of a SA index and a global index is recommended, with careful attention to costs and risk.
Business Book Review: Open to Work: How to Get Ahead in the Age of Ai by Ryan Roslansky
Q: What should we be doing to stay ahead as AI evolves?
Focus on uniquely human capabilities—empathy, creativity, curiosity, and entrepreneurship—and cultivate those traits while developing ways to leverage AI as a companion rather than a rival.
The Greenwashing risk in banking
Q: What should be done to improve transparency and accountability in reporting?
There is a push for stronger disclosure requirements, regulatory interventions, and metrics that prove real-world impact, not only glossy targets.
The Greenwashing risk in banking
Q: You suggest there's something we need to check on a little more deeply; are banks really transitioning or just increasing renewable investments?
The guest argues that many banks may appear progressive, but without credible transition plans and a clear linkage to absolute emissions reductions, they risk greenwashing rather than true change.
How I Make My Money: How Claire’s ARK's candy became a Checkers favourite
Q: What are the key lessons learned about growth and staying authentic?
She highlights balancing rapid growth with quality control, building systems, forecasting, and outsourcing non-core gaps to maintain brand integrity.
