Would You Walk Away From Shares That Might Make You a Millionaire?
You've been offered a new job with better pay and less stress. But here's the catch: leaving your current role means giving up employee shares that might make you a millionaire one day. So… what would you do? We’re unpacking the emotional rollercoaster of choosing between short-term peace and long-term potential, why golden handcuffs are very real, and what we’d do if we were in her shoes (spoiler alert, we didn’t all agree). We also introduce you to LICs — ETFs' more mysterious (and slightly riskier) cousin — and unpack whether they deserve a spot in your portfolio. Plus the usual chaos, unfiltered opinions, and broke hacks you didn’t ask for but you’re getting anyway. Ready for more laughs, lessons, and unhinged money chats?

The Truth About Big Tech Money From Someone Living It
You’ve probably heard the hype: tech jobs = massive salaries. But can you still get a slice of the pie if you don’t work in a technical role? This week’s Money Diarist is here to say… yes, you absolutely can. She’s in her early 30s, earning up to $650K "total comp" a year and building her dream home. But her path into tech was anything but traditional. No coding background, just a string of gutsy moves, lucky breaks, and saying yes before she felt “ready.” We talk about what big tech money actually looks like behind the scenes: the shares, the bonuses, the six-figure tax bills, the lifestyle creep... and the pressure that comes with it all. She’s open, honest, and full of wisdom about building wealth in a world that wasn’t necessarily built for her. If you’ve ever looked at a job description and thought, “I don’t tick all the boxes, so I won’t apply,” this one’s your sign to rethink what’s possible.

Confessions of a Former Shopaholic
This week’s diarist takes us inside a financial journey that will feel very familiar to anyone who’s ever used retail therapy to escape stress. From using Buy Now Pay Later for festival outfits and groceries to hiding debt from her partner (who works in finance, by the way), she found herself in a spiral of spending and shame and didn’t feel like she could tell anyone. That is, until one unexpected lunch conversation changed everything. What followed was a slow and steady journey out of debt, toward confidence, clarity, and a house deposit she once thought was impossible. She’s now paid off $5,000 in debt, saved over $15,000, and learned how to manage spending urges without giving up the things she loves. This episode is for anyone who’s ever used online shopping as a coping mechanism, avoided checking their balance, or felt like they’d already stuffed it.
