I am 22 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: a twenty seven year old veterinarian and have definitely been 23 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: living beyond my means despite making a six figure salary. 24 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: Given my hectic workload sometimes easily one hundred hours a 25 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: week and the emotional told the job takes on myself, 26 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 1: I definitely decide to treat myself a little bit too much. 27 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: I've now decided that in order to keep up with 28 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: my lifestyle, I'll need to make some drastic changes to 29 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: my money habits. I've also decided that this will need 30 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: to involve a dramatic mental health overhaul to make it sustainable. 31 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: My dad was always and still is obsessed with finances. 32 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: He tells me where I need to be at in 33 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: my super to be able to retire comfortably weekly and 34 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: sends me the spreadsheets. Becoming financially free from him, although 35 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: probably not the best decision for myself financially, has been 36 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: great for my mental health. I really want to share 37 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: my story so that other young professionals out there can 38 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: have someone to relate to as a single woman who 39 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: is nowhere near buying a house. All right, money diarist, 40 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: what a story? Are you ready to dive straight into 41 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:29,679 Speaker 1: this one? 42 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: Oh? 43 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: My gosh, all right, I want to know. Can you 44 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: tell us a little bit more about your money story. 45 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 4: So I guess we can start where I, like I 46 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 4: grew up. I grew up very comfortably. 47 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 5: Like I said, dad's very comfortable with money, sort of 48 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 5: discussing it my family. Both my parents to work full time. 49 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 5: They both have higher degrees. That's got to pitch. Gee, 50 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 5: mum's got higher degree as well. 51 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: Oh not the only doctor in the family. 52 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 5: No, no, yeah, Dad's the first doctor. So we always 53 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 5: were extremely comfortably. My sister and I went to good schools. 54 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 5: They weren't private schools, but they were you know, well 55 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 5: known public schools that you had to try really hard 56 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 5: to you know, get into. They've always had We've got 57 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 5: investment properties or the family has investment properties. It's my 58 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 5: parents super and they've got their own businesses. Everything with 59 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 5: the money, they've done correctly. So yeah, and like I 60 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 5: said in my little blurb that Dad was sort of 61 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 5: always talking about money growing up, and he still is 62 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 5: acually having my email calumn a section for him. Says 63 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 5: that all the emails go to cups constant, so I 64 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 5: always get spreadsheets about, yeah, where my finances are meant 65 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 5: to be at and how much are meant to save, 66 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 5: And that's sort of where my money story started. 67 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: I love that. Does he want a job? I feel 68 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: like he would love that. I feel like there are 69 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people in our community that need this 70 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: as well. Ten out of ten Dad behavior. 71 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 4: Oh, he loves a good spreadsheets. I don't want there. 72 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 4: I inherited that from him. 73 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 5: The other part of my money story, I guess, is 74 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 5: that I have a twin sister, and we've taken very 75 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 5: different life paths at the moment. So my degree was 76 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 5: seven years in the end, it took me to finish 77 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 5: met school where she is a paramedic who's in London now, 78 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 5: and she finished in three years, moved straight to London 79 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 5: and made really good money, literally traveled the world. So 80 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 5: we've always sort of competed against each other growing up. 81 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 5: So she's obviously got a lot of savings and she can, 82 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 5: you know, travels freely and just living life, especially in London, 83 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 5: whereas I've sort of always been like in the country 84 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 5: town and working for. 85 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 4: Very minimal wage usually until now. But yeah, wow, basically 86 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 4: where I've come from. 87 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: How interesting. I feel like, that's really like, it's interesting 88 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: to see twins go in two different ways. 89 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 4: Oh, it's just it's scary to look at. 90 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: No, it's not. We'll come back to that. We are 91 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: going to come back to that, all right. I want 92 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: to know what do you do for work now and 93 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: how much money do you earn. 94 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 4: So I'm a VET. I started in GP, and like 95 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 4: I said, I was making six figures. Eventually, after a 96 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 4: few months I got a good pay rise. 97 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 5: Then, in the height of COVID, I actually took a 98 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 5: big paycard of about forty to forty five thousand dollars 99 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 5: to be a Vetery intern, which means when you graduate 100 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 5: from VET, you come out as a general practitioner, so 101 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 5: you can get paid okay, but the award's about fifty something, 102 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 5: so not a lot. Yeah, So I was doing well, 103 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 5: took a big pay cut, and now I've started after 104 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 5: my internship, I've got a residency, which means I am 105 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 5: treating to be a specialist, and I'm on about ninety 106 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 5: a year, roughly a bit under. 107 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 4: So I was just looking at my paychecks. 108 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 5: Then actually, I've done your course, so I've got all 109 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 5: the bits and pieces spilled in. 110 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 4: So I make. 111 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 5: Twenty two hundred and seventy eight dollars a fortnight after. 112 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: Tax, not bad, not bad. 113 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 4: And then you have to take into accountable work expenses. 114 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.

And then because of my. 132 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 5: Training program, I actually get to go overseas. I'm not 133 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,239 Speaker 5: allowed to just train in the same. 134 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 4: Clinic's the same specialist hospital. 135 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 5: So I'm going to go to Queensland, Hong Kong and 136 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 5: hopefully the UK to do some training in the next 137 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 5: couple of years under some big, well known bets. But 138 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 5: that's going to cost a lot of money. 139 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: That's all right. The experience is going to be there, 140 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: And the way your eyes lit up when you explained 141 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: that to me tells me you cannot wait. 142 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 4: Oh, I'm very excited, really excited. 143 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 5: And then I've got my medium term goal, which i've 144 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 5: put so my first short term I've put sort of 145 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 5: one to two years because I know a lot of 146 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 5: my savings are going to go into my externships. My 147 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 5: medium term goal is to save a very solid emergency fund, 148 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 5: which I know I should do earlier, but it's just realistically, 149 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 5: I'm paying so much debt down and i know it's 150 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 5: going to go straight into the internships. And I've got like, 151 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 5: it's sort of nice that my parents are on top 152 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 5: of money because I can always I always rely on them, 153 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 5: as much as I hate to do it, but just 154 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 5: in this job and this career path that I've taken, 155 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 5: I'm unfortunately not going to be able to save a. 156 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 4: Ton of money while doing the externships. It's just it 157 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 4: is what it is. 158 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 5: So you'll go overseas for a few months at a 159 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 5: time and you won't make any money. So the next 160 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 5: goal is the medium term goal. So I've just sort 161 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 5: of put an arbitrary amount about fifteen thousand I'd like 162 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 5: to be able to get a few months of expenses saved, 163 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 5: and then my long term goal is which is ten 164 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 5: years plus. I've decided that I want to get into 165 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 5: investment properties like my family. But given the market at 166 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 5: the moment and my wage and my debt from that 167 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 5: school and all that, I just think there's to do 168 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 5: that anytime soon. 169 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: Still happen in the future, though, that's the plan. If 170 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: we make a plan, we are halfway there exactly. Oh 171 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: my gosh, I love it. All right. You mentioned debt before, 172 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: but I want to ask first about investments, So do 173 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: you have any investments? If so, what are they. 174 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 5: I only have my super at the moment, which I 175 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 5: checked before. 176 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 4: It's at about seventeen thousand, which I. 177 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 5: Think is pretty good for technically only working full time 178 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 5: for two years. I've only done sort of casual shift 179 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 5: work well at UNI. 180 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 4: That's the only investment I technically have at the moment. 181 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 5: I did have a raise account then I figured, I mean, 182 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 5: it's nice to get into it, but I had so 183 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 5: much debt that I ended up taking the money straight 184 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 5: out of that when it had increased a little bit, 185 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 5: just to pay down the debt. 186 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 4: Quicker, I was paying so much, so much interest. 187 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, all right, well let's talk about debt then. 188 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: I want to know. You mentioned before that you have debts, 189 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: So what are they and what are they for? 190 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 4: All right, we'll go through my little list. It's a 191 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 4: very daunting but I was like, I need to have it. 192 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 5: I haven't actually saved in my computer because if I 193 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 5: don't have it right in front of me, then I 194 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 5: sort of bury my head in the sand. And one 195 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 5: of these people that are just sort of lived. I 196 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 5: do live paycheck unfortunately at the moment. That's because I'm 197 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 5: trying to put everything towards payment debts off. 198 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 4: So at the. 199 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 5: Moment, so I did initially pay my help blown off, 200 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 5: which was nice when I was working with my six 201 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 5: figure job. And then I went back and did a 202 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 5: post rate certificate. So that's sitting at about eighty six hundred, 203 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 5: which is not too bad, but it's still there. 204 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: That's not bad debt exactly. 205 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 4: It was about seventy thousand. I think that the school ended. 206 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: Up being Wow, and you paid all of that off. 207 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 4: I paid a part scholarship part with my own work. 208 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: So wow, that's a very big feat on its own 209 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: I know. 210 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 5: But look, there's better places I could have put my money, 211 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 5: but it made me feel good to actually pay some 212 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 5: of it off. 213 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: Yea one hundred percent, and now it's not coming out 214 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: of your paycheck each and every single month as much 215 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: as you've already done it. Like, I don't think it's 216 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: the worst decision. 217 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 5: And I've got my car break down, and I had 218 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 5: basically no savings though, so I still have a car 219 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 5: alan I think it's sitting. 220 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 4: Just over eight thousand an hour roughly. 221 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 222 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 4: I also how could I have. 223 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 5: I have got a credit card debt, which I consolidated recently, 224 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 5: so that's down to four thousand. But I put all 225 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 5: my little twenty debts into that. A. I did a 226 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 5: balance transfer zero percent interest because I felt like the 227 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 5: accounts that I did have, I was spending more in 228 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 5: interest per week, per month, and I was actually putting 229 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 5: back into the payment so. 230 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 4: I wasn't getting anyway. And then I. 231 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 5: Had the fine repayments that is about thirteen hundred dollars. 232 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 5: Le've done that, so drive one hundreds or sent car. 233 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 4: I didn't realize that. 234 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: Oh no. 235 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 5: And then my workplace also didn't text me correctly in 236 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 5: the last year, so I had about sixteen hundred initially 237 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 5: on that and that's about down to. 238 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 4: I've paid a bit of that off. It's about thirteen hundred. 239 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, so is that a total of around 240 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 1: fifteen thousand dollars worth of debt. I'm sorry to add 241 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: that all up. 242 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 4: No, let me actually, let me keep this spreadsheet. It's 243 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 4: all along here loan repayments. This is the daunting part. 244 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 4: It's a just under twenty four thousand. 245 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, not too bad. Honestly, that is not 246 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: the worst place that you can be. And I think 247 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: it's interesting that you said, look, I just bury my 248 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: head in the sand. But it kind of is what 249 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: it is, right Like, we don't need to we recify 250 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: ourselves over debt. We just need to go it's there. 251 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: We need to make a plan for it, full stop. 252 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: End of story. I think the most important thing you 253 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: can do when it comes to managing money is just 254 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: acknowledges the existence and kind of pick yourself up and 255 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: move on, because if we dwell on it, like, it 256 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: doesn't actually grow us, it doesn't benefit us, it doesn't 257 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: put us in a better position, like feeling bad about 258 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: things like that's a waste of time from my perspective. 259 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: But what we can do is do exactly what you're 260 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: doing right now, is create a budget and cash flow 261 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: system that works and put it into place, and then 262 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: you know that plan is eventually going to work. And 263 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: just because you're in debt doesn't mean we can't project 264 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: ourselves forward still, like paying off debt is a really 265 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 1: good lesson, Like it is a lesson in discipline, in savings. 266 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: And the second that you've paid off that twenty four 267 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: thousand dollars worth of debt, well that's twenty four thousand 268 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: dollars worth of savings we now can create because I 269 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 1: know that you've been able to save that in a way. 270 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: So that's a good position to be in, my friend, 271 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it is the most negative, but I 272 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: mean that's not how the person who is in debt 273 00:11:58,880 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: often feels. 274 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, definitely not. And I think, look, it's eye opening. 275 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 5: Like I did the course, I've got it in front 276 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 5: of me and I literally keep a list right on 277 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 5: my computer where I check every day. And it's sort 278 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 5: of nice because once I pay a little bit more, 279 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 5: I'll just sort of knock the price down on my 280 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 5: little It's just like a little note on my computer 281 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 5: so I can visualize it every day and be like, look, 282 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 5: this is actually a lot smaller than it used to be. 283 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 5: And since doing that, I've been like, Okay, I'll pick 284 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 5: a couple shifts up in the er department, or I'll 285 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 5: start another job very soon, just on the side, which 286 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 5: will make me. It could make me another fifteen hundred 287 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 5: per week potentially. 288 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, she'll smash it off in no time. 289 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the aim. 290 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 1: Oh, I love this figure. That is so exciting. All right, 291 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: let's move on to the next question. I want to 292 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: know when you're shopping online, do you shop back? 293 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 4: I sure do. 294 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 5: I've been using it for years.

All right, Last question I've 340 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: got for you before we head to a quick break, 341 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: I want to know what would you grade yourself if 342 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: we forced you to give yourself a money grade. 343 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 5: I'd probably say like a sea at the moment, mainly 344 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 5: because I obviously have the death still and they don't 345 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 5: feel very financially free yet, and that's what I want 346 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 5: to achieve, and I don't want to be living week 347 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 5: to week off paychecks, which I'm doing at the moment 348 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 5: because I'm trying to pay them. So once I get 349 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 5: on top of that and probably get on top of 350 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 5: my depth a little bit more and have a bit 351 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 5: of a saving space. 352 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 4: Then I probably increase it a bit. 353 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 5: But with my where my career will go totally that 354 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 5: will happen in the next five years. 355 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh my gosh. All right, Well, I have a 356 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: lot of questions for you. I want to talk to 357 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: you about growing up as a twin. I want to 358 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 1: know what it's like mentally to work as a vet 359 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: and if it's actually Victoria Devine's dream job, because that's 360 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: what she thought she wanted to be when she was little. 361 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: But I have a heap of questions for you. But 362 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: we're first going to go to a really quick break. 363 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere, guys. All right, money diarist, We are back, 364 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: and I want to dive straight in. When I was little, 365 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: all I wanted in life was to become a vet? 366 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: Is it all that it has cracked up to be? 367 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: I feel like you are living my dream job. 368 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 4: That's what most people think. No, I love it. I do. 369 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 4: I do. 370 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 5: I really love my patience, and I think the work itself, 371 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 5: like the science behind everything's very very interesting. It's just 372 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 5: a very taxing job mentally and financially. Like I was 373 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 5: saying before our award, which is dramatically improved in the 374 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 5: last five years. When you graduate, I think you're on 375 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 5: about fifty seven thousand, like, which is not a lot 376 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 5: of money compared to like my friends. 377 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 4: That finish med school and thereon, they. 378 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 5: Can be close to double that as soon as you 379 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 5: come out. So in that way, it's quite taxing as well, 380 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 5: especially like living in Sydney, so everything's way more expensive now. 381 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 5: It's also it costs a lot of money just to 382 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 5: keep up, like to keep up with continuing education. I 383 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 5: think it's spent about seven thousand last year and that 384 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 5: was a minimum on CPD points and things like that. 385 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 5: But like I said, I do absolutely love it, and 386 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 5: there's there's definitely places you can progress your career. And 387 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 5: I actually don't like working with the young cute dogs. 388 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 5: I like working with the old crossy ones. It's my 389 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 5: area that I want to specialize in. 390 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: Oh, dogs are more special though I am convinced like 391 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: there's something so wholesome and space about an old baby. 392 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 5: I just love it because everyone in the ear like 393 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 5: when they transferred to me in the specialist department, they'll 394 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 5: give me the old crosses because that's. 395 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 4: All I want to deal with. 396 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 5: That's actually where I've taken my new job with a 397 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 5: Paletti of care business as well in Sydney. 398 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: So oh my gosh, that's so wholesome. 399 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 5: We'll go around to people's house, isn't either. It sounds 400 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 5: really depressing, but it's quite nice. I actually put their 401 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 5: dogs down at home around their family, or perform paliative care. 402 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,479 Speaker 4: Practices at times they don't have to come into the clinic. 403 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 4: But yeah, no, I love. I did not see my 404 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 4: career going in that direction at all. 405 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 5: I thought I just wanted to be a general practice 406 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 5: that or even work with cows. I didn't actually think 407 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 5: I'd be ending up working with old crossings. But yeah, 408 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 5: that's where my career is safe in me at the moment, 409 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 5: and I'm absolutely loving it. 410 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 4: But yeah, like every job, it's got a substance down. 411 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: How do you deal with that mentally? Because I actually 412 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 1: think that that is it's a really special position to 413 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: be in. Having had pets that I have had to 414 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: put to sleep before, it is heartbreaking and one of 415 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: the hardest things ever. And you know, the idea that 416 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: you can do it at home, I don't think was 417 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: an option available to us when we did that. I 418 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: remember our first dog had to be put to sleep 419 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: on Christmas Eve one year when I was twelve, and 420 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: it was heartbreaking. And now I can't drive past that 421 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: vet without thinking of it. And it just wasn't this 422 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: you know, experience that you know she deserved. And I 423 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: mean she had the best life ever, right like she 424 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 1: was Milo the dog. She was the best thing that 425 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: ever happened to my family. She existed in the family 426 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: before I did, and then she passed away when I 427 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: would have been at high school, right like she had 428 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 1: a legacy. But I feel like being able to do 429 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: that in people's homes is so special, But that would 430 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: take such a toll for me, Like how do you 431 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 1: deal with that and how do you look after yourself 432 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: in a role like this? 433 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 5: Well, I feel like that's the It's like again, it 434 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 5: sounds really funny, but it's I was talking to someone 435 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 5: calling about this the other day actually, and that kind 436 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 5: of things actually called it filling my vet cup. Because 437 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 5: the families are so grateful in most cases, beautiful family, 438 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 5: Like in your situation, it's usually you know, the family's 439 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 5: first baby that they're putting down and they're just very appreciative. 440 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 4: And if it's like a pallid. 441 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 5: Care type consult at least we know that we're making 442 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 5: a plan and making the animal most comfortable and doing 443 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 5: the most the most respectful thing we can for them. 444 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 5: Same when it comes to euthanasia, because so we obviously 445 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 5: I will go out or even in the clinic, will 446 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 5: tell them if it's you know, we think it's actually 447 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 5: a time because we have to be an advocate for 448 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 5: the animal. 449 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 4: It's all about mindset. 450 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 5: I really don't mind doing it if I think it's 451 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 5: genuinely the best decision for. 452 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 4: Both the animal and for the client. Especially it sounds 453 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 4: like bad. 454 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 5: Money obviously comes into it a lot, especially working in 455 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 5: a specialist clinic. Some animals, some treatments cost tens of 456 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 5: thousands of dollars, and. 457 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 4: People course can't afford that, especially in this day and age. 458 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 4: We're getting people that are taking loans out and I 459 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 4: don't I don't like. 460 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 5: To see the clients in that position either where they 461 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 5: kind of compete themselves or they can't pay the rent. 462 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 4: If euthanasia is a feasible option. As bad as that sounds, Yeah, 463 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 4: and as for keeping myself and my mental health under control, 464 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 4: I feel like doing the at home stuff. 465 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 5: It fills my cup because we're doing something really sweet 466 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 5: for the family, and most animals hate going to the 467 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 5: vets anyway, especially when they get to fifteen and they're 468 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 5: in pain and they're. 469 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 4: Experiences at the vet before, whereas doing. 470 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 5: A lot of my normal everyday work doesn't because I 471 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 5: just get a lot of abusive clients as that as 472 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 5: it sounds just because of the money started thing and 473 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 5: just the nature of the practice that I'm in, So 474 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 5: it sounds awful, But when I explain it to people, 475 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 5: I get they generally understand where I'm coming from. 476 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 4: So if you just have to put yourself in that position. 477 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: Yourself, yeah, it doesn't mean that you love doing it, 478 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: but I think that getting the best outcome for the 479 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: animal and the family, like that's, you know, at the 480 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: end of the day, a dream role. And I just 481 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, I've got a lot to say about 482 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: that space because I just think that humans should be 483 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: extended that same grace. But we won't go down that 484 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: path at this time. I want to pivot the conversation. Actually, 485 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: you said something at the very beginning of our conversation. 486 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: You grew up as a twin and you felt like 487 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: it will feel like you're always competing against your twin. 488 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: And it's an interesting concept because we talk about it 489 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: on the podcast all the time, that comparison is the 490 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: thief of joy. But you've literally grown up with somebody 491 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 1: who's basically cut paste of you. I'm assuming and watching 492 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: them flourish might not be the easiest thing to do. 493 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: So can you talk us through what that's like and 494 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 1: why that's the case, because I feel like I've got 495 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: some choice words for you to stop doing that after this. 496 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 4: Yeah. 497 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 5: So, literally, if you have a kid, obviously, even to the 498 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 5: same primary school, we had all the same friends, be 499 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 5: just to people Cindy. 500 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 4: Suburb, so it was like from the get go. And 501 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 4: I think it's just. 502 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 5: Our personalities in the family we grew up in just 503 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 5: super competitive, whether it came to like just extracurricular activities 504 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 5: or school grades. Usually school grade when we were school age, 505 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 5: that was the main thing. Oh my gosh, I just 506 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 5: said a very bad memory of school. Actually, in our 507 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 5: hc SO year twelve, Dad put together this is probably 508 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 5: where some of my she's going from. Dad put together 509 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 5: a payment scheme depending on what a tire you got. 510 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 4: She's probably not the best thing you could do for 511 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 4: like a. 512 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: Young Oh, the pressure no dads. 513 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 4: I know. 514 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 5: So we both ended up splitting from our regular high schools, 515 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 5: which didn't solve a lot of issues because then we 516 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 5: weren't constantly competing against each other at school, and obviously 517 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 5: we're both quite academic. 518 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 4: So she went to our local selective school. 519 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 5: I went to one out west, and my school actually 520 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 5: ranked better. We played the HC game a little bit, 521 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,479 Speaker 5: and I obviously got better marks probably well. 522 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 4: I did well in some of my very well in 523 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 4: some of my subjects. 524 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 5: But I probably got a lot of good My ati 525 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 5: in general was better just because at. 526 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 4: The school I went to, because. 527 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 5: It was ranked high, so I think everyone pulled my 528 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 5: marks up. So in that case, my sister probably got 529 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 5: ten points below me. 530 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 4: I think it ended up being and I don't. 531 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 5: Even think she made it technically onto dance scheme, which 532 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 5: was just awkward in general. So he literally for every mark, 533 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 5: he had a different amount of money than he would 534 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 5: pay us if we got that mark or if it 535 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 5: was over like ninety nine, he would buy us a 536 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 5: new car, which we both didn't achieve. But it's just 537 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 5: got a pressure growing up obviously, So that's my I mean, 538 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 5: this is my money. 539 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 4: Story as well. 540 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, dad, we need to sit down and talk about 541 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: toxic behavior.

But talk to me about 560 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: comparison as an adult, because I feel like as an adult, 561 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: like you are you and that is special And you 562 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: know you've said that you feel like a bit behind 563 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: from everybody else. But I just want to know how 564 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: we can move you away from this or what other 565 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: twins are thinking in these circumstances. 566 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 5: So, like I said, my sister, well, now she's in 567 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 5: London as paramedic and she's making very good money, especially 568 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 5: because they get a lot of overtime, whereas I spent 569 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 5: more than twice the emailt of time at Union. I'm 570 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 5: very dependent on my parents and at time and to 571 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 5: get literally to get by. Like I said, I really 572 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 5: don't have any savings at the moment because of all 573 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 5: the deaths that I have, but I can't help that. 574 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 4: So it's just it. 575 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 5: Gets very awkward when she's like, come and meet me 576 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 5: in Greece, and I'm like, we want money, and then 577 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 5: she's like, we'll pay for you, when I was like, 578 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 5: but then I'll own like five thousand dollars and I 579 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 5: just don't have the money to pay that back and 580 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 5: I don't want to do that. 581 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 4: To us either. And then oh, and then I've got obviously, 582 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 4: I've got my friends that are all the majority of 583 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 4: my friends. 584 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 5: Are teachers and nurses that they came out of UNI 585 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 5: a very similar time to her, and they're all pretty well, 586 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 5: at the stage where I think my girl group has 587 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 5: bought a house now and then probably half of them 588 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 5: now are getting engaged, some of them have babies, and 589 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 5: I'm obviously at a very very different time point in 590 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 5: my life. 591 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 4: To them at the moment. 592 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 5: Of course, it's obviously very difficult when they're talking about 593 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 5: buying houses. And I was like, I love all listening 594 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 5: to all these stuffs, but I listen to podcasts and 595 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 5: I love reading. I just love financings in general. But 596 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 5: I just know that it's going to be like a 597 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 5: good ten years before I'm in that position. 598 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And do you know what, that's okay? And I 599 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 1: think that that is a really hard position to be 600 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 1: in because in a way, you might assume or feel 601 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 1: that you all had exactly the same start point because 602 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: you're graduated from the same place and kind of have 603 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 1: been friends. I'm assuming that economically you probably have very 604 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: similar families and backgrounds and experiences. So that can make 605 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 1: us feel really behind. But I guarantee you there are 606 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: people listening to your story right now, going my gosh, 607 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: you's so far ahead. Oh my gosh, you went to 608 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: UNI for seven years, Like that's crazy. You mentioned before 609 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: that you're going to go on international externships, like are 610 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: you kidding? That is the dream, Like you are going 611 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: to be absolutely flying ahead of them in years to come, 612 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: because don't forget as a VET. As much as you 613 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: don't start at a high salary, there is absolutely so 614 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: much opportunity in the future. And it's not necessarily about 615 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: how much money you earn, but rather how happy you are. 616 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: And it's very, very hard to be a happy human 617 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: being if you're consistently looking at the happiness of other 618 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: people and going, oh, I can't be happy because I 619 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 1: don't have what they have. I think it's about a 620 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: little bit more self gratitude and looking internally and going, oh, 621 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: my gosh, I'm actually a really cool human, Like I've 622 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: paid off seventy thousand dollars worth of my help debt 623 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: or my own I killed it, Like, babe, that's more 624 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: than a house deposit for most people. Like you, you're 625 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: a very cool human doing very very cool things. And 626 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 1: I think you're giving yourself a little bit too much 627 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 1: undue pressure. 628 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 5: And I think the big thing is like like, because 629 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 5: my friends will listen to the podcast as well, and 630 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 5: so we all like we literally all listen to it. 631 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 5: And so we have these conversations and we talk very openly, 632 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 5: and I'll obviously openly expressing like a very freaking broken 633 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 5: moment just with the debts that I have to pay off. 634 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 5: But then they'll all obviously turn around and be like, doctor. 635 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're a doctor, Like that's crazy, but I don't look. 636 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 5: At it like that obviously, So but they then they say, 637 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 5: you know, put me in my placement, but you're actually 638 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 5: doing big things, and residence is very hard to get, 639 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 5: especially in the early stage of your career. So I'm 640 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 5: doing I am doing well, but it's just hard to 641 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 5: obviously force myself to think like that. 642 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think that, you know, going back to 643 00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: you saying that you're doing my budget and cash flow 644 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: my class, I think that maybe go back to that 645 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: and go resell all your values and your goals and 646 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: maybe pop some blinkers on and just focus on that 647 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: and what you're up to, and maybe put in place 648 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: not only a plan to achieve that, but a plan 649 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 1: to celebrate the small things, like what are you going 650 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: to do when you pay off your four thousand dollars 651 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: worth of credit card debt?
