Australian Finance Podcast · Our best bits of The Australian Finance Podcast in 2022 · 26 Dec 2022 podcast

All my jobs have made me quite unhappy at some point.

But you get into the culture.

If you're in an environment where there's a culture of drinking and it is the type of drinking where you're funding it yourself rather than office drinking, which is slightly more common in some industries.

But I was out there drinking with like the CFO, right?

He could afford it.

I was on like equivalent $32,000 in London when it was like 12 pounds for a glass of wine.

But when you are sort of in those environments, sometimes it could be a symptom of being unhappy about something or sometimes it can be a symptom of just the contextual life that you are living where your finances just don't match.

And sometimes it can be, you know, a bit more logical and maybe there are less feelings, but it's just that you're in an environment where your spending habits can't coexist with your finances.

It can happen in friendship groups when, you know, you've got doctors, lawyers, and then little old you on an advertising apprenticeship.

You know, it's not, we behave the same way and we keep up with our peers and

I do think the keeping up with the Joneses behavior is a little bit more of our parents' generation.

I don't personally feel like I've ever consciously done that.

But the environments that we exist in mean that we not actively keep up, but just feel compelled to participate in the same types of hobbies, holidays, hen do's.

Australian Finance Podcast · Feel better about money with The Broke Generation · 4 Apr 2022 podcast

Hey, I'm great.

Thanks for having me.

My name is Emma.

I run The Break Generation and I focus on helping people feel better about their finances so that they can build the confidence they need to do all the other things, save, invest, spend wisely, all that kind of stuff.

I mean, yeah, I talk about this stuff all day and I could go on for hours.

So how long have we got?

Yeah, so I think for me, I mean, it's been like you said, you don't just go from where you are to investing.
