Until next time, have a great day.

this podcast can only give you general information about how things work in most situations it's not individual financial advice if you're after that a financial advisor is always the best bet

So I am literally in the lobby of the New Zealand Radio and Podcast Awards and I just had to take this quick moment because we won!

We won Best Business Podcast and I am blown away because I did not think that our little independent podcast would win this.

For those of you who have been listening to this podcast since the beginning, you know that we started this pretty quick.

Hey team, it's Frances.

Well, the government's opened up their books for the year and told us what they will and won't be spending on.

And frankly, it's a lot of won't be spending on.

The vibe is very much, yep, it's tough out there and you're on your own, kid.

So where does that leave the rest of us?

And what can we actually do to maybe do a little bit better in what's frankly a pretty tough time out there?

I went on TVNZ Breakfast to talk about where this leaves the rest of us and what we can do to give ourselves a little bit of calmer waters to steer the ship through.

They very kindly said I could share that with you here.

So here you go.

Hope it helps.

I know.

We had the survive to 25.

We all repeated that ad nauseum.

Then we came up with a new little fix to 26.
