Small Steps Out Of Massive Debt!

GeorgianaCavendish

I discovered the FT Money podcast a couple of weeks ago. There is a really good episode today called "Six financial mistakes that women need to avoid" that I listened to on the way to work. Very interesting!

Editing to add that it is free on Apple podcast app, I'm sure you can find it free somewhere from other sources

I only recently realised that a lot of the magazines & newspapers with paywalls have free content on podcasts Saying that, the article this podcast is based on is not behind a paywall : https://www.ft.com/sixmistakes

Not finance related but Ear Hustle is my current favourite (podcast by the inmates at San Quentin State Prison)

Ear Hustle sounds great too - just added a Podcast bookmark folder to save these suggestions in

It is great news! Now I've got an extra couple of months to really get to grips with it! Hope you had a good weekend!

Hope everyone had a good weekend! Mine was great, FIL's birthday meal was brilliant - he was incredibly happy (and it was within our budget ) and my book club meeting went really well. Already someone offered to host the next gathering at their house next month, so it looks like this is a win and that we can avoid costly coffee shop / restaurant meetings
We also discussed where to find books, lots of recommendations for Amazon and Ebay second hand sellers and as we all read fairly quickly and have a month for each one, passing copies of books between participants of the book club.

I LOVE the idea of a book club. Sounds great! And all the better that you don't have to spend loads of money at a restaurant.

I agree that hosting the book club meetings at the members' homes is very MSE! Actually probably much nicer as you can concentrate more at home rather than in a noisy restaurant/cafe!

It is really nice to sit and chat about books, one of my favourite topics I am eagerly awaiting news of the next book!

Definitely! No faff, no noise and no-one eavesdropping
