In this special Olympic-themed episode, we're deep (olympic) diving into the 2024 games in Paris, noting the substantial $11 billion benefit expected for France and the staggering costs involved. Did you know $1.5 billion has been spent on cleaning the River Seine? Vic explores the paradox of the Olympics never turning a profit while significantly boosting local economies through tourism and infrastructure development. And while France is lapping up the spike in tourism, Spain is getting pretty angry with overcrowding and skyrocketing rents leading to protests and calls for stricter regulations. No buena! We also cover the latest financial news, including Tesla's stock dip and Spotify's record profits. Click here to read Soph's blog 'From broke to stoked in Italy'. Watch this episode on Youtube.
