Welcome to What The Finance, Mamamia's new podcast all about getting good with money.
Superannuation: where does it go, how much do you need, and how do you make the most of it?
Often retirement can seem so far away that we don't give our super a second thought, especially when it's in several different funds. But taking control of your super now can save you thousands in the long run. In this episode, Melissa Browne and Pallavi Sharda speak to Melinda Howes, General Manager of Superannuation at BT, to wade through all the jargon around superannuation, and get the facts.

Whether you work full-time, part-time, are a freelancer or own your own business, the working world can be a minefield to navigate. There's negotiating your salary, asking for a raise, setting your freelance rates, and all the ups and downs that come with owning your own business.
This week, Mel Browne and Pallavi Sharda tackle the subject of the working world, a topic that can often make us want to bury our heads in the sand. We also hear from Steph Claire Smith and Laura Henshaw, co-founders of wellness program Keep It Cleaner on how they turned their side hustle into a hugely successful brand.

Welcome to What The Finance, Mamamia's new podcast all about getting good with money.
How many bank accounts do you have? Pallavi Sharda, like many of us, has one, but according to our financial expert Mel Browne, one is not enough. And to get good with money, you need at least four, if not more.
This episode is all about savings, budgeting, and debt. But before you switch off at the mention of the dreaded b-word or d-word, it doesn't have to be scary. And we’re going to share with you practical ways you can make a difference to your financial situation.
We’ll talk you through making tangible goals, planning out ways to eliminate debt, and setting up good habits so you can be on your way to becoming financially adult.

Welcome to What The Finance, Mamamia's new podcast all about getting good with money.
Hosted by financial expert and author Melissa Browne and actress and financial novice, Pallavi Sharda, each episode we'll break down all the myths and misconceptions when it comes to your personal finances, plus give you practical tips and speak to experts.
This week we're starting with your spending habits and the values you place around money. How you spend your money says more about you than you think, and according to Mel, once you’ve worked out why you value your money, you’ll be in a much better position to make informed decisions about what you’re spending it on.
So what is your relationship with money? And is it serving or sabotaging you? Let’s find out...
