There's no doubt that 2022 was an interesting year for investors. A year filled with uncertainty and opportunity. From Russia's invasion of Ukraine, to global monetary tightening, raising interest rates to never-ending power cuts.

So as we come to the end of the year, take a second to reflect on your investment portfolio and overall relationship with your money.

Were you able to own the market? Did you panic and sell or did you buy the dip? Were you able to stay committed to your budget? What financial lessons did you come out with?

On this episode Dj @ Large shares some of his financial goals and lessons from 2022.

The W in Women stands for winning.

In the penultimate episode of our Women’s month roundtable discussion, Carly Barnes switches things up by playing a game of Never have I ever with the rest of the Fab 4. From blowing insane amounts of money on items, to using emergency fund savings on spoils like a holiday, to tackling that tricky salary increase conversation with the boss.   
 
Put your feet up, grab a drink, press play and prepare for the giggles with Esther, Pinky, Thando and Carly Barnes (Head of Brand at EasyEquities).

We’re in the home stretch of our 5-part Women’s Month round table discussion with the fab 4 and Carly Barnes (Head of Brand at EasyEquities).

In part 4 we tackle words that have torn up families and created many conflicts, the B word and the S word… of course we’re talking about Saving and Budgeting.

One of our panelists gives us a mantra we should all live by when it comes to budgeting “Keep it simple, keep it realistic”. We often find ourselves setting budgets that don’t take into account our need to feel good as human beings, whether it’s lunch with friends, that delicious cup of coffee from your favourite spot or that pair of shoes that make you feel like a million bucks. Your budget should always take into account the big things like housing, transport, insurance etc but the “small” things that light up your life matter too. We also learn some game changing saving tips from smart shopping to complementary pricing which could make your next shopping experience interesting.

Put your feet up, grab a drink, press play and let the women speak!

There has never been a better time for a panel of women to have an honest yet casual conversation about their relationships with money, as well as the barriers they face when it comes to investing. So, for the month of August, which marks Women’s month in South Africa, we found it fitting to curate a 5-part round table discussion; by women for women.

In this first episode, we introduce our panelists, as they range in age groups, personalities, and career paths. All of the ladies in this series offer a variety of perspectives as they cover their diverse experiences in managing their journey toward wealth creation.

Led by Carly Barnes (Head of Brand at EasyEquities), our guests Esther, Pinky, Thando and Tshegofatso unpack their money stories, indulge us on their guilty money pleasures, and share insightful views on investing during a pandemic . Unwind and get comfortable. Press play and let the women speak!
