But it's fine, 30 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: it's fine. 31 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 2: My one this week is something that I've seen in 32 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: the group before. It's a little life hack. Petrol went 33 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: up to a dollar seventy from a dollar twenty. 34 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: Gee. 35 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's too many dollars rough on the bank account, 36 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely very rough on the bank account. So as soon 37 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: as I saw that it went up, I jumped on 38 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: the seven to eleven app. And you can lock the 39 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 2: fuel price. 40 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: So if people have always been big fans of that. 41 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: In space grip, once upon a time, you used to 42 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: have to upload or like put money onto it and 43 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: it would lock it and then you would use that 44 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 2: money to pay and I wasn't into that, but now 45 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 2: you can just lock the fuel price, so locked it 46 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: in a dollar twenty a week later when I went 47 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 2: to fill up, everyone else is paying a dollar. 48 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: Seventy and I'm paying one and twenty. That is genius. Huge. 49 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 1: How does it actually work though? 50 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 2: Do you go exactly cashier and you're like, yeah, yeah, 51 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: you just show them I think they I think there's 52 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: a barcode and they scan it and it yeah, just 53 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: locks the price, yep.

So part one of that true 93 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,799 Speaker 2: part I guess you could call it a mini series 94 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: went up on Wednesday all about the costs of having 95 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 2: a baby, and the much awaited Matt Leave episode is 96 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 2: coming soon.

But Beck, Yeah, 101 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 1: she was just a little rate of sunshine in the 102 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: studio and so articulate, and she just had so many 103 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: hot tips for saving So. 104 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: If she said, yeah, she has that really interesting we 105 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 2: you call an experiment or like a like her recording 106 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 2: of every dollar round. Yeah. 107 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, So she recorded literally every cent she spent throughout 108 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: her pregnancy and the first three months I think of 109 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: having the bubba, and she ended up spending about seventeen 110 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: grand not cheap, not cheap, but it was like one hundred. Yeah. 111 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: There's like no statistics on that really, like you and 112 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: the estimations, like they give you a range on like 113 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: how much it costs, and it's a pretty big difference. 114 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: I think the start we threw out was between three 115 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: thousand and seventeen thousand, so that is a huge. That's 116 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: helpful at not helpful, not helpful, but our chat with 117 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: Beck definitely was helpful. So if you are planning a family, 118 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: or you're just interested as I am, in how much 119 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 1: that actually costs, then that is a really good episode 120 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: to have a listen to. Moving on here, Jessicarr, should 121 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: we talk about money wins and confessions from the community 122 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: that stood out to us this week? 123 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 2: Oh? Absolutely, there's no Ryan John here to play us 124 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 2: the funky background music. We didn't really plan for this, 125 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 2: We didn't do. You want to kick us off cheeking 126 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 2: with your first money win? 127 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: Sure? Okay, what have I got here? I've taken down 128 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: a few? Okay, this one was my favorite. This is 129 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 1: from Sarah who has a money loss, but it kind 130 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: of turns into a money win. So she broke her 131 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: wrist roller skating on Friday. So sad for you, Sarah. 132 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,559 Speaker 1: I hope you're okay. But that cost her four hundred 133 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: and thirty dollars in unexpected medical expenses, and she also 134 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: lost her weekend of wages. Obviously obviously she works casually, 135 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: couldn't go into work. Yeah, so that sucks, But the 136 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: money win of that is that she's saving money on 137 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: petrol for the next six weeks because she can't drive, 138 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: so it's kind of Bunny's money win. Yeah, you're gonna 139 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: be passive in these times, Sarah. I hope you're back 140 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: on the skates soon. Bloodio legend. 141 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 2: My first win is from Hannah, and she said, not 142 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 2: so much a win as a temptation win. But I'm 143 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 2: going to account this as a money win because I 144 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: recently did this for Victoria. 145 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: She said. 146 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 2: She unsubscribed from a whole bunch of promotional emails to 147 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: stop her inbox and getting so cluttered. But the side 148 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 2: benefit is that she's not going to be bombarded by 149 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 2: emails making her want to purchase things, which such a 150 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: smart proteb. I've done this for myself, like I said, 151 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 2: I did it for v recently because her inbox, you guys, 152 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: a nightmare, and like just removing that temptation those sale things, 153 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 2: like the targeted marketing that you get these days. There's 154 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: a really good doco on Netflix called The Social Dilemma, 155 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 2: which talks a lot about the psychology of marketing and 156 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: how companies are kind of I don't want to use 157 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 2: the word exploiting, but like utilizing that to get us 158 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: to buy and get us to spend. So unsubscribing is 159 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: a really great way to remove temptation. 160 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: Oh one hundred percent. It is like anytime I'm in 161 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: my emails, there's always that promotions tab and yeah, all 162 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: every time, and I always click on them, and I'm like, gee, 163 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: what are you doing? And then you want things that 164 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: five minutes ago you didn't correct because they're not in 165 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: your face when you're not subscribe to them. 166 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 2: One hundred scents, So recommend that great there from Hannah. 167 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 2: Next one from Ujking. 168 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: Okay, so this one is from Jazz who has some 169 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: amazing friends. Get this chess. So she went out for 170 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: breakfast with some girlfriends. She ordered something little to keep 171 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: the costs down and she's trying to be frugal. The 172 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: cafe didn't split bills, so her friend paid for hers 173 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: and she wouldn't let her pay her back. That's the 174 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: first one. And then the second part of this is 175 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: that she caught up with another friend on Sunday at 176 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: a distillery gorgeous love a bit of gin. She happened 177 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: to know the bartender and got a free cocktail, and 178 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: then her friend paid for their tasting flights. That's like 179 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: a flight of all of the variations of gin and 180 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: then she was invited back to her parents place for dinner, 181 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: so free meals, drinks galore. 182 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: I love that for her, I know, I feel like 183 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 2: it's a really nice thing too, Like, sometimes you're not 184 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 2: in the position to afford to catch up with friends, 185 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 2: and sometimes you might be in a position where you 186 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 2: are a little bit more free with your money, You're 187 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: in a slightly better financial place, and I think it's 188 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 2: really nice sometimes to just be like, hey, like I've 189 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 2: got it. 190 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 1: If you're like, just like a little pay it forward 191 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 1: leaves you with such a nice feeling, and you're exactly right. 192 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: Jazz was stressing out about those social events because she 193 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: was strapped for cash. So yeah, really nice. Over to you, 194 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: my friend, all right. 195 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: My next one is from Marni, who has two big 196 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 2: moving money wins. 197 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: Moving is expensive. 198 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 2: I did it not that long ago, and it is 199 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: not cheap. What are we talking so moving house specifically, 200 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: and she instead of hiring a truck, bode a ute. 201 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: So she said it added three or four hours to 202 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 2: the move because she had to do multiple trips instead 203 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: of just the one load you'd do in a big truck. 204 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 2: But saved her a couple hundred bucks. Good girl, I stress, 205 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 2: I feel like as well. Driving a truck can be stressful. 206 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: Have you gotten behind the big wheel? 207 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 2: I attempted it once and I used to drive a 208 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: Missi Micraft, so a little bit. The jump from a 209 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 2: micro to a truck is kind of wow. But then 210 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 2: the second part of that is that instead of paying 211 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: three hundred dollars for an end of lease clean they 212 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: did it all themselves, and they did it better than 213 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 2: they feel like the cleaners would have, and that saved 214 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 2: them another three hundred dollars. Well done, So huge big 215 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 2: money wins there from Marny. 216 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: Just to make it about Georgia once again, we my 217 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: old housemates and I spent two days cleaning our house. Yeah, scrubbing, 218 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: getting down on those knees and scrubbing. As I said, 219 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: we thought we'd now dis Yeah, and then we get 220 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: a call from our grumpy agents saying, of course you 221 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: have not cleaned this a property, spelling your ears. But 222 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: we had to pay four hundred and fifty dollars to 223 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: clean the whole place. It's so expensive. 224 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 2: So here's a fun fact for you guys. Did you 225 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 2: know at least in Victoria, the rental laws state that 226 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 2: you're only required to leave it in a reasonable cleanly condition, 227 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 2: Like they can't actually penalize you from having like a 228 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: few streaks on the shower or whatever. Like. The law 229 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: states that it just has to be in like reasonable 230 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 2: condition and cleanliness. Oh my god, as definitely was reasonable 231 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 2: real estate, and like rental property managers will sometimes like 232 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 2: obviously they want to do the best they can for 233 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 2: their investment owners, leave your rental property clean. Don't get 234 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 2: clean up after yourself. But it doesn't have to be 235 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: speaking span and you don't have to spend all of 236 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: those hundreds of dollars speaking anyway, I've. 237 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 1: Got a few years, ol choose just one last one 238 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: as with this one is from Jane, who was inspired 239 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: by Victoria's call on the podcast to get a cheaper 240 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: phone plan. Remember that a few weeks ago. Oh my god, 241 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: not even for a dollar. That was the best. He 242 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: was great and the little nurse Rey rhymes in the 243 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: background playing on the t BES. Yeah, it was gorgeous. Anyway, 244 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: Jane called up Optus. She got them to give her 245 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: the thirty nine dollars ten gigabyte plan for nineteen dollars 246 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: with an extra five gigabyte. All she said was she 247 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: wanted a cheaper plan as she could see better deals elsewhere, 248 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: and that's what they gave to her. Amazing. 249 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 2: If you haven't, there's a script on the website. Check 250 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 2: it out, get yourself a better deal. I know we 251 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 2: plug it a lot, but the amount of money you 252 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 2: can save on just like you're recurring general bills. Reading 253 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: the Facebook group, people are dating hundreds. 254 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly right. Just finish us off with our 255 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: final money win of the week. 256 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 2: All right, My last win is a goodie from Natalie. 257 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 2: She says they scored a baby tag along. 258 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,839 Speaker 1: She's one of those cute little like a tricycle. 259 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 2: It in clothes that you put a baby in on 260 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 2: the back of the bike, so it's like a trailer. 261 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: Look the trailer. 262 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, put the baby in the trailer, put the trailer 263 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 2: on your bike and you pedal around and they get 264 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 2: to sit in the back. Amazing, much more safe than 265 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: a trailer obviously specifically designed to hold children. But she 266 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: got a tag along for free because they noticed their 267 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: neighbors had it sitting in. 268 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: Their yard and they stole it. 269 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 2: Look, I mean potential money and perhaps a league lost no, 270 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 2: but they asked if they could purchase it, and then 271 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 2: the neighbor gave it to. 272 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: Them for free. 273 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 2: Stop. 274 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: I feel like that's such. 275 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: A nice thing to do again, the pay it forward yeahtality, yeap, 276 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 2: very into that. And there's a really cute pick of here. 277 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 2: Let me turn it around so you can stand my 278 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 2: poor description. Look, buddy, Yeah, there's things that there's like 279 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 2: three kids. 280 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: In there as well. That's a decent The best friends 281 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: ride and they stuff. 282 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 2: All right. Well, Now, normally we'd have a bit more 283 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: back and forth and discussion because they'd be double the people. 284 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: They'd be double the people. 285 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 2: So I thought, let's just chat some fun stuff from 286 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 2: the group. One of my favorite parts of my job 287 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: is the fact that I'm in the group every day, 288 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 2: like reading things and commenting on things, and we just 289 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: have so many fantastic discussions. So like, not at all subtle, plug. 290 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 2: If you're listening to the pot and not in the 291 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 2: Facebook group, get amongst it. There's a lot going on. 292 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 2: I wanted to kick it off with something that popped off. 293 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: We had a thread posted just kind of asking a 294 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 2: few general questions about the gender pay gap yep, and 295 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 2: a lot of people expectedly talking about what they had experienced, 296 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 2: the fact that they feel like it's real. I just 297 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 2: wanted to ask George, like, what do you feel like 298 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: there is a gender pay gap? What is your personal 299 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 2: experience in this area. I know it's a big it's 300 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: a big one to tackle, but I feel like it's 301 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 2: it's worth talking about. 302 00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: Oh, definitely, definitely. See it's it's hard to know because 303 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: you and I, Jess, we're still quite young, so it's 304 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: hard to know because we It's hard to say this 305 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: because we're talking about she's on the money. 306 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 2: Like, we're in a privileged position where we work for 307 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 2: a business that really values it the employees. There are 308 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 2: very open discussions around money. Yep. Like it's all very transparent, 309 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 2: but most people aren't that fortunate. Yes, which makes it tricky. 310 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: I feel like, no, one hundred percent. So obviously you 311 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: and Digests have it pretty good at she's on the money, 312 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: So this isn't something that I've been directly affected by. Yeah, 313 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: we're very lucky that our boss is a financial advisor 314 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: and we're having these discussions every single day, and we're 315 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: seeing them in the community and we can engage with them. 316 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: But at the same time, it is still such a 317 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: huge issue and it's something that kind of needs to 318 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: be addressed, but I don't really know what the answer is. 319 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 2: Like, it's a tough one, isn't it. Yeah, there is 320 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 2: interesting along this lines. There was an interesting post on 321 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 2: some proposed laws that would mandate pay transparency and things 322 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 2: like that. So at the moment, it's legal for there 323 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: to be a clause in your contract that says you 324 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: cannot discuss your salary with another employee, which I think 325 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: is an absolute joke because that's how businesses leverage, you know, secrecy. 326 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 2: If you don't know what If I don't know what 327 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 2: you're earning and you don't know what I'm earning, then 328 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 2: how can you ever find out the difference exactly right? 329 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 2: And that's where I guess that gender pay gap comes in. 330 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: If there are males that are earning more, maybe you're 331 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: not aware of it or you're not confident enough to 332 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 2: discuss it. Have you ever had this in a passwordplace? 333 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: Yes and no. 334 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 2: So I don't want to get too specific here, but 335 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: in a role that I worked previously, I was doing 336 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 2: something very comparable to a male counterpart, and it was 337 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 2: in an industry that is definitely, I would say Mayle 338 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 2: will dominate it. We were really good friends and I 339 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 2: knew that he was earning more than me, and there 340 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: were a few new answers to it, Like it wasn't 341 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 2: super clear cut, but I just remember thinking that, like 342 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 2: I didn't know how to address it. I didn't really 343 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 2: know how to bring up that feeling of oh, like 344 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 2: I think I'm working just as hard as you, and 345 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 2: I'm doing just as much as you, but you're earning, 346 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: you know, fifteen thousand dollars more than me. It's just 347 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 2: very it can be very overwhelming, I think, and I 348 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 2: feel like what we were seeing on this thread in 349 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: the group is a lot of people talking about times 350 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 2: that they had been given really poor reasons for why 351 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 2: they were perhaps earning less, like women are less confident, 352 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 2: or women are doing less in the workplace, or they 353 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 2: have less ambition, and that's why your male counterpart is 354 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 2: earning more. And to be honest, I never got to 355 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 2: that point because I never felt comfortable to have that conversation. 356 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: And that's on me a hundred percent. But yeah, it's 357 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 2: a really tough one. And I think like having those 358 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 2: conversations like what happened in the group. Opening up people's 359 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 2: eyes and just being more open in gen which is 360 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 2: what we talk about too much on the pod, is 361 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 2: a really good step forward to kind of challenging those ideals. 362 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: Have you ever spoken with your mates that cho's on 363 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: the money or in previous workplaces about your pay, because 364 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: that is a really difficult. 365 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, not so much. At other workplaces, she's on the money. Like, 366 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 2: I'm pretty across it, and like we're all very open 367 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 2: and that's like a huge change for me. But even 368 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 2: strangely in my close friendship group, like it's never really 369 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 2: been a conversation that's been had. Which I was speaking 370 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 2: to a friend recently and it came up kind of organically, 371 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 2: and I was very happy and open to share my 372 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 2: salary because, like I said, like, we have such an 373 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 2: open environment here that it's kind of just second nature now. 374 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I. 375 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: Like I did it, and then there was this brief 376 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 2: second where I was like, oh my god, like what 377 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 2: did I just do? And then obviously everything was fine, 378 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 2: like we just continued on the conversation. But yeah, I 379 00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: don't know how about you are your are your friends 380 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 2: the same? Ah? 381 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, Similarly, it's not something that we really discuss like 382 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: I think for a few of them, money is still 383 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: something that makes them quite anxious, and it's just not 384 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: an area they feel comfortable wandering into. 385 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, which, of course, if you're not comfortable, we're not 386 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 2: saying you need to be screaming things from really not. No, 387 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: you do you make sure that you're comfortable. But if 388 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 2: you are able to facilitate those conversations or if maybe 389 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 2: she's on the money, is a good you know, a 390 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 2: nice opening or a nice segue for you to kind 391 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 2: of start having those discussions. I think it's really powerful 392 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 2: because knowledge is power. 393 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: Did any other posts kind of stand out to you 394 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: this week?
