On this episode of the podcast, I am joined by guest, Arthur, to explore the delicate balance between enjoying the present and saving for the future. Arthur opens up about his tendency to overthink spending on leisure activities, revealing the internal struggle to strike a harmonious balance. I draw from my own experiences, and emphasise the significance of setting specific goals for savings, especially when planning for children's futures. 

We dive into broader topics like money mindset, financial planning, and the transition to self-employment. We highlight the importance of clear financial goals, creating designated funds, and navigating challenges tied to cashless transactions. The conversation touches on concerns surrounding the buy now, pay later culture targeting young people and the necessity for comprehensive financial education. Arthur shares his money dreams, focusing on stress-free trips and supporting his children's future endeavours.
