What is today’s podcast all about?
Guest interview with Ash Phillips, founder of Dffrnt – a community for founders and creators. The chat is all about democratising entrepreneurship and helping young people with start up businesses find the right investors for their idea.
Bage’s Biases
Every episode, Behavioural Finance expert, Neil Bage, is going to be giving us his money behavioural tips. We are hardwired to make bad decisions about money because we have biases built into us from our experiences through life. We will keep hearing from Neil to help us recognise some of these behavioural biases and hopefully lead us to making better financial decisions.
