And so I was like, oh, this 175 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: is interesting, and I, you know, a week or so ago, 176 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 2: I said to Jess, hey, did you know that the 177 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: account is actually based in Nigeria? And also it was 178 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: established in twenty eighteen, and also they've changed their name 179 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: like eight times, so I'm assuming they use this account 180 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 2: to like replicate you, then they delete everything, change the 181 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 2: account and then replicate their can whatever. And she was like, wow, 182 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: I didn't even know you could do that. So we 183 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: started stalking other people and like just having a bit 184 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: of fun with that, and I was like, wow, I 185 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: didn't realize I joined Instagram in twenty eleven. I am 186 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 2: really old anyway, So I had that information, sure, I 187 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 2: assume because Jess, who usually knows absolutely everything, didn't know that. 188 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 2: Not everybody knew that. So used it to my advantage. 189 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 2: And I said, I'm a private investigator. I found him 190 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: on TikTok. I told the guy and I said that 191 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 2: we would create amazing content. And I was like, I mean, 192 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 2: you can keep scamming people. But my TikTok investigator guy 193 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: and I have a meeting later this afternoon, and he's 194 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 2: already told me heaps of stuff about you. And they 195 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 2: were like, absolutely, that's not true. You're a China scam me. 196 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 2: And I was like, I would never scam a scammer. I, 197 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 2: you know, used to be a financial advisor. I'm a 198 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 2: legitimate human being. And he was like, you don't know 199 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 2: anything about me, and I was like, well, I already 200 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: know that you're based in Nigeria and you created this 201 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 2: account in twenty eighteen, and you've already scammed seven other 202 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 2: people in Jessica's the eighth and then they said, give 203 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 2: me two hundred dollars and I'll delete the account. I said, 204 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 2: that's fine, of course I would give you two hundred dollars, 205 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: but you're a scammer, so I'm not giving you any 206 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 2: money until you delete every single post change you or 207 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 2: use the name unfollow everybody from Jessica's page that you followed, 208 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: then we can talk about it, yes, And so he 209 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 2: did all that and then I said, oh, sorry, I 210 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,199 Speaker 2: don't have two. 211 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 3: So the account we think as of today that we're recording, 212 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 3: it's not it's still. 213 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: It's not active.

So 523 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 5: I've got some money back from my tax return and 524 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 5: I was looking at looking in with Phil to sort 525 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 5: out my insurances. I've also been listening to the Property Playbook, 526 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 5: and I feel like I might be in a better 527 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 5: position towards buying my first house than I thought. Would 528 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 5: it be better to contact feel and sort out my 529 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 5: superhind my insurances first as I have two super accounts, 530 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 5: or is there a better option or someone I could 531 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 5: speak to that would be able to kind of handle 532 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 5: everything for me? 533 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 3: Thanks. 534 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 2: This is a really interesting one because at the start 535 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 2: I was like, Oh, I have so much advice on 536 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: what you should do with your tax return. But then 537 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,719 Speaker 2: it went down the property path, and then it went 538 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 2: down the superpath. So you said you have two super accounts, 539 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 2: and I think the first thing I would be doing 540 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 2: is understanding what both of those accounts are and if 541 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 2: they have insurances as default on them. If they do, 542 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 2: you need to work out if those insurances are any 543 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 2: good and worth keeping or if you rolled your super 544 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: together it wouldn't matter. So you need to understand that. 545 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 2: But it's also twenty twenty three and the government has 546 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 2: a very cool MyD super comparison tool that means you 547 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 2: could probably go and it depends if you've got a 548 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 2: balance under one hundred thousand dollars. The probability of you 549 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 2: being able to just do it yourself and pick a 550 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 2: really good super fund that makes sense and aligns to 551 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 2: the fees you want to pay, the values you hold, 552 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 2: and the investment options that you want access to. I 553 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 2: just feel like a lot of us don't need to 554 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 2: pay a financial advisor for that. I really don't, and 555 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 2: I say that because I just go, you know what, 556 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 2: that super comparison tool run by the government is really good. 557 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 2: It's really clear, it's really clear. It compares apples with apples. 558 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 2: It's not here going oh okay, well, you know we're 559 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 2: being paid by this super fund, so we're going to 560 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 2: put it at the top of the list like it 561 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: doesn't do that. It's nothing like those comparison sites. So 562 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 2: I would be trying to do my super trying to 563 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 2: work that out myself, sam o hand. Yeah, insurance is 564 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 2: on the other hand, are not DIY. There's something that 565 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 2: you do definitely want to speak to an advisor about 566 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 2: and to save some cash because you know, you said 567 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 2: you were trying to buy property. I would go with 568 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 2: a financial advisor that does insurance only advice. It means 569 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 2: that the cost is going to be significantly stripped back. Also, 570 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 2: they're a financial advisor, so you could ask, hey, what 571 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 2: are your thoughts on super I don't want advice on it, 572 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 2: but I'd like to talk through what this insurance option 573 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 2: inside supermans or what this means. They're going to have 574 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 2: the knowledge to have that conversation, and I promise you 575 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 2: they'll have a good conversation with you about it so 576 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 2: that you're more educated in that She's on the money community. 577 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 2: We always recommend Sky Wealth and we will put a 578 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 2: link to Phil's company in the show notes because one 579 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 2: he's done all of my team's insurances. He's very cost 580 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 2: efficient when it comes to the statement of advice because 581 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 2: you need a good statement of advice. It's under five 582 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 2: hundred bucks. Like, that's a money win in any financial 583 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 2: advice circumstance. If you go to another advisor who has 584 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 2: not been structured to just give insurance advice like Phil's 585 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 2: structured his business, it will be a minimum of fifteen 586 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 2: hundred to three thousand dollars for insurance only advice because 587 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: that's just what it costs that business to do, whereas 588 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 2: Phil only does insurance. And I kind of like that 589 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 2: because you go, you know what, I'm not going to 590 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 2: talk to you about my investments, but I know that 591 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 2: you know everything about insurance because it's all they do. 592 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 2: It's their bread and butter. It's not just like for 593 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 2: a lot of financial advisors like I historically, and I'm 594 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: not trying to throw myself under a bus, but I 595 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 2: historically worked in the investment space and for me, insurance 596 00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 2: was important because it was a hygiene factor for my client. 597 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 2: But I'd sit just down and be like, okay, cool, 598 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 2: so we're really prioritizing this, I'm going to go do 599 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: your insurances on the side, set all of that up, 600 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 2: but then really focus on investment. Whereas Phil his team 601 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 2: are going to be one hundred percent dedicated to making 602 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 2: sure that you're getting the right insurance for you. They're 603 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 2: going to do the ongoing management really cheaply, and it's 604 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 2: just to me, makes financial sense. 605 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 3: The next thing, it's a laundry list. 606 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 2: The next thing, my friend, well, she made it very 607 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,479 Speaker 2: clear I need to do X. I'm like, I have 608 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 2: all these resources. Sit down, baby. The next thing you're 609 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 2: going to do is called the Zella Money team. Not 610 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 2: call them. We don't have a phone that you can 611 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 2: call unless Kate gives you her mobile number. And she 612 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 2: never answers me, so I don't know why I should 613 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 2: answer you, or maybe she would answer you, and that's 614 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 2: a sign. But I would talk to the Zella Money 615 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 2: team because if you think you're in a better position 616 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 2: to buy, that's actually one of the first conversations I'd 617 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 2: have before establishing insurances. I would actually go and speak 618 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: to the broker. And do you know why I would 619 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 2: do that, because if you are in a better position 620 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 2: to go and get your property of your dreams, right. 621 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 2: Let's say that you are in the best position to 622 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 2: buy actually right now, if you already established your insurances. 623 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 2: Once you settle on this property, you have to review 624 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 2: your insurances to consider the new debt that you've taken on, right, 625 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 2: So I would be talking to the broker first and 626 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 2: going hey, like, what's the probability? Like what do my 627 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 2: timeframes look like? Am I comfortable with this? Is this 628 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 2: actually something I want to do? Chat to the Zeala 629 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 2: Money team or a mortgage broker. To be honest, I 630 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,439 Speaker 2: don't mind who you talk to. I obviously know and 631 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 2: trust to the Zeala Money Team, but any good broker 632 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,479 Speaker 2: is going to be able to have this conversation with you, 633 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 2: sit down with them, work out your time frames. If 634 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 2: buying is another twelve months off, go see philp get 635 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 2: your insurances implemented, and then at your twelve month review 636 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 2: you can update those to be reflective of your new 637 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 2: hopeful purchase. But if you're buying in the next two 638 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 2: to three months, honestly I would buy and then implement insurances. 639 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 2: Does that make sense and why you might do it 640 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 2: that way? Say the double handling, save the double handling, 641 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 2: save having to go back and be like, hey, I 642 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 2: actually now have six hundred thousand dollars of debt that 643 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,719 Speaker 2: I didn't have before. You're going to have to do 644 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 2: a whole new statement of advice. 645 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 3: I don't pay for advice twas, don't pay for advice 646 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 3: twice if you can want it exactly. 647 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: So that's what I would be doing if I were you. 648 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 2: But when it comes to what you should do with 649 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 2: your tax return, well, my friend is up to you. 650 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 2: But I just think that I wrote an article the 651 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 2: other week on girl math and how much I don't 652 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,719 Speaker 2: particularly love this concept of girl math, because I think 653 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 2: it really downplays how intelligent women are when it comes 654 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 2: to finances and money and goes, oh my gosh, we're 655 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 2: just trying to justify frivolous purchases, Whereas I would really 656 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 2: hope that Jess, if you went out and bought a 657 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 2: new dress, you could just be like, yeah, I like 658 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 2: the dress.

Like you're smart. I 670 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 2: know you've got a budget for your clothing. I know 671 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 2: that's a value to you because you're literally the most 672 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: fashionable person I've ever met. And it's really frustrating because 673 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 2: I always look like a foot But it's one of 674 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 2: those things where you go, well, actually, Jesse is really 675 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 2: financially savvy, and if she's got a new dress, like, 676 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 2: no one should be questioning her because I know she's 677 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 2: made good financial decisions. And that's how everybody should be 678 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,959 Speaker 2: respected when it comes to financial decisions, not looking at 679 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 2: them being like Victoria gets eyelash extensions. That's a little 680 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 2: bit silly, do you know what I mean? I just 681 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 2: think we're smarter than this, and in a world where 682 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 2: we are still constantly battling to be respected as women 683 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 2: in the finance space, to be respected as good investors 684 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 2: or smart savers. I don't think now is actually the 685 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 2: time that we can joke about women being frivolous with money, 686 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 2: like we're not there yet. Isn't actually a joke. It's 687 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 2: an underlying factor that is left over from the patriarchy 688 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 2: being better at things. And that's why men find it funny. Right, 689 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 2: It's not because we are actually good at money and 690 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 2: we're like, ah, oh my god, Yess, you're so bad 691 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 2: with money. If I laugh with Jess about being bad 692 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 2: with money, it's because I know she's bloody good at it. 693 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 2: Whereas that permission by having that conversation on a grander 694 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: scale might make people think, oh, well, Jess just calculates 695 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 2: that by it cost per wear, And I totally looked 696 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 2: at this five hundred dollars dress and I'm actually gonna 697 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 2: wear it like five hundred times, So that makes the 698 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 2: dress like a dollar so that doesn't matter, and I 699 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 2: totally can justify it that way, and then they pop 700 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 2: it on their credit card. Like, I think, this narrative 701 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 2: of not being smart financially it is going to give 702 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 2: too many people permission to not be smart financially. 703 00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 3: Right, So with the tax retam. What you're saying is 704 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 3: make smart money, does it? 705 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 2: Yeah? Don't be like, oh my gosh, I deserve new dresses, 706 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 2: I deserve to do this, or oh my gosh, I 707 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 2: deserve a weekend away. Let's actually look at your financial position. 708 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 2: Do you have an emergency fund? Yes, fantastic? Is it 709 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 2: completely topped up? Have you reviewed your expenses recently? Because 710 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 2: we always say aim between three and six months or 711 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 2: like whatever you're most comfortable with. Those are just guidelines, 712 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 2: nothing set in stone, but people like guidelines, so we 713 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 2: always give them. Have your expenses changed significantly recently with 714 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 2: the increasing cost of living, but also like your mortgage 715 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 2: repayments or something, do we need to look at that? 716 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: Is that still reflective of your actual cost over three months? 717 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 2: The answer is yes, oh fantastic, Jessica. What else are 718 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 2: you working towards? You haven't bought a house yet. Could 719 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 2: that go towards your house deposit and get you a 720 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 2: little bit closer? Could that, you know, go to a 721 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 2: million other things. I don't think it's bad to carve 722 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 2: off a little bit as a treaty tree. Yeah, treaty tree, 723 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 2: But I think that just blowing your entire tax return 724 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 2: on a new handbag when you're not in a financial 725 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 2: position to do that, because you're like, oh, it's not 726 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 2: actually real money, it's like fake money. It's just my 727 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 2: tax return. Actually, my friend, that is money that you earned. 728 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 2: That is real money that you earned, that was put 729 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 2: aside for you to pay taxes, and now it's not. 730 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 2: So it's kind of like a bonus to get you 731 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 2: ahead financially. Now you're deciding that that's not what you 732 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 2: want to do with it. Again, educated decisions. You want 733 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 2: to go buy a handbag with it, you do, you, babe, 734 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: But at least you know that you're in a financially 735 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 2: secure position. And I promise future you was going to 736 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 2: thank you if you put yourself in a position where 737 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 2: you have an emergency fund where you didn't have it, 738 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 2: because whether that is five dollars or five hundred dollars 739 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 2: that you didn't have yesterday, future you, when they need that, 740 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 2: they can be like, oh my gosh, that was so 741 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 2: smart of me to put that to the side. Yeah guaranteed. 742 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I reckon, she's going to do something smart because 743 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 3: she knew she's obviously she. 744 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: Knew, lady. 745 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 3: Yes, I feel like that was just a little nice 746 00:33:58,280 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 3: pep talk. 747 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like Faithan's all right, let's move on. We 748 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 2: have a not as spicy as usual. DN, That's okay, 749 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 2: but it's still interesting. A topical conversation, okay, where I 750 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:17,760 Speaker 2: think it's going to divide the room? Maybe are you ready? 751 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 2: So this week our community dilemma is this message that 752 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 2: we received, Hi team. I currently rent a home with 753 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 2: my husband and two children, and with recent rent increases 754 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 2: and my self on maternity leave, we're living paycheck to 755 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 2: paycheck with basically no savings. My lovely parents have offered 756 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 2: to have us move into their home, but the thought 757 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 2: of moving my family of for into the space of 758 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 2: two bedrooms, and if I'm being honest, the thought of 759 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 2: moving back in with my parents is one that I'm 760 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 2: not sure I love. How do you decide between getting 761 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 2: ahead financially and your pride and your comfort? Ooh, do 762 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:56,760 Speaker 2: you want to go first? 763 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 3: I mean, it's so hard because I guess it depends 764 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 3: on what your definition of paycheck to paycheck is. Because 765 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 3: I can understand if you are literally like down to 766 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 3: your if we're taking it like quite literally, and you're 767 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 3: like I have every dollar accounted for, I'm barely scraping by. 768 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 3: I can't do anything fun. I'm really stress to me. 769 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 3: It's a really obvious choice to move back in with 770 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 3: your parents, and I guess it is. 771 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 2: Also massively privileged, very privileged, but. 772 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 3: Also largely dependent on your relationship with your parents too, 773 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 3: because I suppose if you're moving into right now, it 774 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 3: sounds fantastic, it's so kind of them to offer that 775 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 3: to you. But if you have a difficult relationship, or 776 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 3: historically you've had a difficult relationship, that could be compounded 777 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 3: by being in close quarters all of the time, And 778 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 3: so I guess that is a factor to consider as well. 779 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 3: I mean, if that is manageable, I feel I go 780 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 3: for it. That's not something a lot of people have 781 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 3: the option of. Not everybody's parents can accommodate them. Not 782 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 3: everyone's parents will accommodate them. The amount of money, even 783 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 3: if it was a short period of time that you 784 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 3: could potentially save, even if you were still contributing to bills, 785 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 3: If you're splitting bills between your parents and your family 786 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 3: rather than just paying them yourself, that's still gonna put 787 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,439 Speaker 3: you quite far ahead. So it's kind of like short 788 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 3: term pay, long term gain. Yeah, but for some people. 789 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 3: They might love their family. They might be like, oh 790 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 3: my god, movie nights free babysitting, Like it's gonna be 791 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 3: like the Brady Bunching. 792 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 2: My girlfriends literally ended up buying a house that was 793 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 2: two houses stuck together so that she could be that 794 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 2: close with her parents in law. That's cute, and I 795 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 2: think that is so wholesome, like so incredible. 796 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 3: No, not for me, but I. 797 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 2: Love Steve's parents, but I cannot imagine being that close 798 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 2: to other people. But then there are people that are like, no, babe, 799 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 2: I thrive on that. It's literally the best thing. Our 800 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 2: kids are obsessed with just having their grandparents downstairs. And 801 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, that sounds amazing for you, And. 802 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:56,759 Speaker 3: I guess that's where the comfort thing really comes in. 803 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 3: There is if you're someone who really I'm very introveted. 804 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 3: I like having my space. That's what I need to recharge. 805 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 3: Adding more people into that situation for me would suck. 806 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 2: You can move in with me, It's okay, Yeah, you 807 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 2: can't bring your cats because then there would be two 808 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 2: four D dog Actually no, I mean I'm for that. 809 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 2: I've changed my mind. We'll convinced Eve. 810 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 3: We'll figure it out. But yeah, like for some people, 811 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,239 Speaker 3: I can see why you would be concerned as well, 812 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 3: and it can be a hard thing to say, Like 813 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 3: if your parents have said, oh, like you can move 814 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 3: in with us, it's also hard to then justify to 815 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,800 Speaker 3: them why you wouldn't want to do that without really 816 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 3: like you, yeah, like, that's not what I'm saying. It's 817 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 3: just my space and my time and my like where 818 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 3: do we put our stuff? 819 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,800 Speaker 2: I'm an adult now. Yeah, it's it's a hard conversation 820 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 2: to have as well. What are your thoughts? 821 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 4: It's such a tough one because I guess exactly what 822 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 4: you're saying, Like, what is the dynamic here? If you 823 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 4: have parents who I guess like you're kind of walking 824 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 4: around the house not wanting to upset them, would you 825 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 4: feel like you have the kind of relationship where they 826 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,280 Speaker 4: maybe don't respect your boundaries, They're coming into your personal 827 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 4: space a lot of the time. Would they be offended 828 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 4: if you need alone time after spending a lot of 829 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 4: time with them, Do you feel like you just be 830 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 4: constantly anxious that you've upset them at some point? I 831 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 4: just don't think I would want to live like that. 832 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 4: If that's the relationship that you have. But if you 833 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 4: have like super crazy parents, like they are totally totally 834 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 4: respected boundaries, they can give you all the pricy you need. 835 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 4: They understand that you have your own family, and they 836 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,399 Speaker 4: understand that people need space and time, and they can 837 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 4: be grumpy, they can be happy all these things. If 838 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 4: they're completely accepting of that, and you're not worried about anything, 839 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 4: then like, sure, do it. 840 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 3: Oh you know what I mean. 841 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,399 Speaker 2: I understand it's way more to it. 842 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 4: Of course, like reducing your space to just two bedrooms, 843 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 4: so the comfort there is something that you'd have to 844 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 4: really compromise. 845 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 2: But exactly exactly what you're saying, like a little. 846 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 4: Bit, just do it for a little bit of time, 847 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 4: save up some money, wait unto you're comfortable, go back 848 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 4: out there and try again, and then if you get 849 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 4: down the dragon or whatever the. 850 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,879 Speaker 2: Song says, that's the song to be listening to right now. 851 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 4: But exactly right, Jessica, I do actually tend to agree 852 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 4: with you for this one. Just if you have the 853 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 4: resources to stay with your parents and you have that 854 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 4: ability to take advantage for a little while, unless it 855 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 4: will really stress you out, then it's not worth it. 856 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,439 Speaker 2: What do you reckon bed I'm probably a little bit 857 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:26,240 Speaker 2: more planned. 858 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm proper. 859 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 2: I don't think any of you are going to see 860 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: this coming, but I would want you to make a plan. 861 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 2: So I want you to actually sit down and not 862 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 2: make a decision yet, like do a pros and CON's 863 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 2: list of like what are all the benefits of moving in? 864 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 2: And then what are the cons? Like be savage because 865 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 2: those things could make or break relationships. 866 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 3: Don't leave it anywhere anyone could read. 867 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,879 Speaker 2: It, burn it, put it in your phone, and then 868 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 2: backspace it once you're done. Like the CON's list doesn't 869 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 2: need to see the light of day. But you need 870 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 2: to sit down with your partner in this circumstance, all right, 871 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 2: yess what's the worst thing? And Jess could be like 872 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 2: v I literally hate it when Steve xyzs and I'll 873 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,239 Speaker 2: be like, whoop, don't tell Steve that's good to have 874 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 2: on the list. So I think it's important to look 875 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 2: at your pros and cons and then make a plan 876 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 2: and be really clear on that plan. So why are 877 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 2: you making this decision? Because if you go, oh, Beck, 878 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 2: you can move back in with me to save a 879 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 2: bit of money, and you go, yeah, no worries well 880 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 2: what does that mean, Like, look at your budget, to 881 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 2: a comprehensive budget and sit down and go all right, well, 882 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 2: if we're not paying rent for this period of time, 883 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 2: we're going to save twelve hundred dollars two and a 884 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 2: half thousand dollars a month. Whatever that looks like. Is 885 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 2: that feasible? What other fees and charges and other things 886 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 2: in the background. Might we have to. 887 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 3: Pay storage for your furniture or something, all of. 888 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 2: That kind of stuff. But also I would be adding 889 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 2: in some personal time too. You know, obviously you need 890 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 2: to be discussing this with your parents because there's kids involved. 891 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 2: But I'm going to make the grand assumption that if 892 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 2: you're living under the same roof as somebody else, you're 893 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 2: probably going to want maybe like an extra date night 894 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 2: or something away from that dynamic to make it more 895 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 2: palatable in the long term. Yes, good work. You're going 896 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 2: to sit down and work out Okay, Well, Jess and 897 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 2: I've worked out that if we move our family back 898 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 2: in with my parents, we're going to save twenty five 899 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 2: hundred dollars a month at a minimum. How much do 900 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 2: we want to save? What is the goal here? Like, 901 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 2: are we just saving for a month. Are we saving 902 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 2: for three months? Are we saving for six months? Are 903 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 2: we saving a whole house deposit? If we are saving 904 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 2: a whole house deposit, what does that look like? Is 905 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 2: that ten thousand dollars? Is it one hundred thousand dollars? 906 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:35,359 Speaker 2: I'm going to move back in with my parents to 907 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 2: do your whole house deposit and that's going to be 908 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 2: four years? What does that actually look like? And I 909 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 2: would say shameless plug use the she's on the money 910 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 2: goal setting activity, which means that you are specific, optimistic, 911 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 2: time bound, and then also measurable. So the measurable part 912 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 2: will come in. If you say you're saving twenty five 913 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 2: hundred dollars a month and you need to get to 914 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,359 Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars, what will that look like? It's that 915 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 2: time frame. Then once you've done your plan, you're going 916 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 2: to hide the cons list because if you've then decided 917 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,919 Speaker 2: to move in with your parents, just delete all of that. Yeah, 918 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 2: pretend it didn't happen, and then you're going to go, hey, 919 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 2: mom and dad, before we move in, can we just 920 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,239 Speaker 2: have a really big chat about what this means, because 921 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 2: we really flip it. We really want to respect your boundaries, 922 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 2: not take advantage of the home that you own and 923 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:27,319 Speaker 2: understand what that would mean, because they might go, oh, one, 924 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 2: that's really thoughtful, but two they probably haven't thought about it. 925 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 2: Is there anything like my parents? My parents would jump 926 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 2: at the chance to have Steve and I move back in. 927 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 2: That's cute. Like they would be like, yep, yep, come live, 928 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 2: come stay, like we hear from them often when you 929 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 2: come to stay with us, when you're coming down, when 930 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 2: are you going to And that's so kind and I 931 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,360 Speaker 2: adore it, But I would want to be like, okay, cool, 932 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 2: Like what would be the dynamic of cooking every night? 933 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 2: Especially if I have two young kids? Because there's more 934 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 2: of us now than of my parents, So is there 935 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 2: an expectation and that you know we're contributing a bit 936 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,720 Speaker 2: more Mum and dad, don't worry, we'll do all the cooking. 937 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:08,880 Speaker 2: We'll just jointly fund groceries. You guys have basically private 938 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 2: chef now money when life, when domestic chores? How's the 939 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 2: house going to stay clean? Can we talk about these 940 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 2: things and set some really realistic boundaries and expectations before 941 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 2: moving in, Because what if you're not as thoughtful as 942 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,359 Speaker 2: Jess Jess? Oh, my god, if you moved in with her, 943 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,400 Speaker 2: she just like clean your room too. But what if 944 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 2: you're not that thoughtful, and you've got your two kids 945 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,839 Speaker 2: running around and your husband that maybe isn't that good 946 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 2: at domestic work, and then your mom's like far out 947 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 2: and cleaning up after them all the time. That's not fair. 948 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 2: So I think having these conversations up front, having a 949 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,839 Speaker 2: time frame, having a desired outcome for why we are 950 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,840 Speaker 2: doing that is one going to mean going into the 951 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,879 Speaker 2: house would be easier, But also it keeps your eye 952 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:58,720 Speaker 2: on the prize when you're there and things are hard. 953 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 2: Oh yes, it doesn't really matter, Like, do you know 954 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 2: we're halfway to that home deposit? Do you know we're 955 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 2: halfway to that emergency fund? Oh so much for Okay, 956 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 2: well maybe we'll use fifty bucks and we'll go get 957 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 2: a pizza and needed in the park together and just 958 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 2: get out of this house for a bit. Yeah, does 959 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 2: that make sense? So you need really clear boundaries, really 960 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 2: clear goals, and understanding what that actually means. When everybody else, 961 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, everybody had such colorful opinions. All right, 962 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 2: So first we asked our community, have you moved back 963 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,399 Speaker 2: in with your parents. Fifty three percent of you said yes, 964 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 2: Oh Genesis. We said if yes, how long for? So 965 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 2: this was pretty split. Twenty percent of you said one 966 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 2: to three months, twenty two percent said three to six, 967 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 2: twenty five percent said six to twelve, and thirty three 968 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 2: percent said for more than a year. We then had 969 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 2: a couple of dams, which I think were really irrelevant. 970 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 2: So someone said, I think it's worth looking at it 971 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 2: with your husband and making a plan. You're so smart. 972 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 2: I wish i'd thought of that, of what it could 973 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 2: look like if you moved back in with your parents. 974 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 2: It's a really great opportunity to get ahead and save 975 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 2: yourself some stress if you can to do it in 976 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 2: a way that you and your husband are comfortable with. 977 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 2: I'm guessing the added benefit could be some extra help 978 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 2: with the kids. Someone said, I recently moved in with 979 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 2: my partner and his mum after some hesitancy, But it's 980 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 2: actually been a game changer. Once you can see what 981 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,360 Speaker 2: you can achieve with the extra money, it feels like 982 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 2: a weight has been lifted. If it is only temporary 983 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 2: to get ahead, keep reminding yourself that by this time 984 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 2: next year, or whatever your goal is, you'll actually own 985 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 2: your own space and will be X dollars better off, 986 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 2: with much more financial freedom and oververall a better quality 987 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 2: of life. I honestly think it is worth temporary discomfort 988 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 2: in order to achieve your lifelong goals. 989 00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 3: No pain, no gain again. 990 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 2: Baby. Then in our little like reply box, which are 991 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,399 Speaker 2: much shorter, so people said, I think so it's hard, 992 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 2: but it would be financially rewarding. Someone said, hell, no, 993 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 2: I'm not moving back in with my parents. I'll live 994 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 2: on the street. I said, talk with your partner and 995 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 2: if it's a yes, set a time limit on you 996 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:58,279 Speaker 2: so mentally you know there's an end date. Someone said, 997 00:45:58,320 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 2: I moved back in with my parents to say for 998 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 2: he had fast to posit. It was painful, but we 999 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 2: saved seventy k Wowly. Someone said, financially it's a blessing, 1000 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 2: but mentally might not be so healthy. You need to 1001 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 2: set very strict boundaries. 1002 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 3: The boundaries thing is a big one. It's like a 1003 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 3: housemate thing. I'm like, what if your mum came in 1004 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,240 Speaker 3: and just like picked up your undies so your heartners undies, 1005 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 3: so wash them for you because she's really nice. But 1006 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:20,359 Speaker 3: I would hate like I would just hate that. 1007 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 2: My ex boyfriend's mum used to do that. Bless bless her. 1008 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 2: She was the kindest person in the entire world. But 1009 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 2: when you were in your very early twenties and your 1010 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 2: boyfriend's mum at the time folds your G string and 1011 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 2: puts it on the end of. 1012 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 3: The bed, Oh my god, that's so cute. 1013 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 2: You're moultified. 1014 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the word. 1015 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like it's not a good feel like you're like, oh, 1016 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 2: that's so nice. 1017 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,720 Speaker 3: Where did you find that? 1018 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 2: You would be a surprised. I've never done it myself, 1019 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,280 Speaker 2: but she definitely did it, and it looked very pretty, 1020 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 2: very perfect, and I really didn't want to face her everything. 1021 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 3: That's understandable. 1022 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 2: Someone said, I'm moving with my mum. It was an ideal, 1023 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,439 Speaker 2: but I can't afford to move back to Australia without 1024 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 2: this option. So I just think there's lots of different 1025 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 2: situations and lots of different outcomes. I think the general 1026 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 2: consensus though, from our community is make a plan, understand 1027 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 2: the pros and cons set boundaries, and understand your end goal. 1028 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 2: It's not just me, guys. Yes, perfect advice. We're trying 1029 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:27,279 Speaker 2: our best and to be honest, if you can do 1030 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 2: it. It's kind of genius to save money. Pretty French is 1031 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:34,799 Speaker 2: expensive if you could save that amount per month like 1032 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 2: no amount option, short term pain, long term gay. That's 1033 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 2: it all right, guys, I think we are done here. 1034 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 2: We have some fun things to get to.
