74. Why we need systemic financial change
Conversations around gender-based financial inequality often focus on how far we’ve come as a society. While it’s important to celebrate, we also shouldn’t lose sight of how much change remains ahead of us. To this day, financial hardship and homelessness still disproportionately affect women in Australia. And for all of our collective focus on individual efforts, there needs to be systemic financial change if we want to see results.In this episode, Tash and Ana speak with someone who is striving to bring this systemic inequality to an end. A financial educator at Sprout Education, Jenny Rolfe-Wallace also hosts the international award-winning podcast It’s Not About The Money (Australia). Join Jenny as she talks with the Get Rich Slow Club about financial intersectionality, gender-based poverty, and what we can do about it.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

72. What are the differences between investing in and out of super?
Tash and Ana recently received a thought-provoking question from a listener named Angela:“I’m new to the world of investing and looking to get started.

71. What buying a $100 moisturiser taught me about money feat. Emma from the Broke Generation
Emma from The Broke Generation has shared some deep wisdom on this podcast. However, while practical strategies and structured insights are useful guides, there are moments in which we learn all we need from a single experience.In this session, Tash details how the purchase of a $100 moisturiser altered her relationship with money. At a glance, it seems like a strange catalyst for change. However, for Tash, the moisturiser symbolised a fork in the road – a choice about the life she wanted to live. Whether or not you use moisturiser yourself, you’ll be able to relate; we all have our own “$100 moisturiser”, and how we respond to it can influence how we manage our finances.Tune in for the anecdotes, and leave with a fresh perspective on your own money habits!@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

70. Card Points 101: How to make the most of rewards
As a general rule, the Get Rich Slow Club approaches credit card points with a wary eye. Anything that compels us into spending more money clashes with our philosophy, and points can fall into that category. With that said, there are obviously times when we need (or simply want) to spend money. At moments like these, points can be a nifty hack in our quest to get rich slow.That’s why, in this episode, Tash and Ana dive into the weird world of bonus points. Beyond providing an overview on how they work, they also compare the pros and cons of different points systems; explore how to earn them easily; and discuss how to spend them for maximum effect.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.

69. Is investing in VDHG long-term a good idea?
VDHG is a very popular investment within the Australian long-term investing community. It was no surprise, then, when a listener recently asked us:“Is investing in VDHG long-term a good option?”At the Get Rich Slow Club, we don’t like to deal in “good investments” or “bad investments”. After all, the right investment for you might be the wrong choice for someone else. That’s because VDHG’s (or any asset’s) suitability for you can depend on a range of factors, from your risk tolerance, to the amount you want to invest.In this session, we discuss these different factors in-depth. By doing so, we hope to help you feel empowered about choosing your investments – whether it’s VDHG or anything else.@tashinvests@anakresina@getrichslowclub@pearlerhqGet Rich Slow ClubPearlerYouTubeDisclaimerAny advice is general and does not consider your financial situation needs, or objectives, so consider whether it’s appropriate for you.
