Finance podcasts for making money on the move

The start of a new working year brings with it the promise of plans for personal improvement. But beyond booking into bootcamps and PT schedules, there’s also financial fitness. For time poor planners looking to better manage their budgets and attain their finance goals in 2023, here’s our list of the best finance podcasts, both in Australia and overseas.

1. The Australian Finance Podcast

Owen Rask (founder of the Rask group) and Kate Campbell (founder of How To Money) record every week, offering tools and knowledge required to smash your personal finance goals. The podcast focuses on giving the listener the fundamentals of financial literacy including how to simplify and save your money alongside more practical advice like what to look for in a super management fund.

2. She’s on the money

A female focused finance podcast, financial adviser Victoria Devine offers her tips and tricks for navigating the modern financial landscape. Here, Devine’s guests look to divulge investment, property and personal finance tips and hacks alongside a recurring monthly ‘Money Diary’ where listeners share their own financial journeys. Relatable and refreshing.

3. My Millennial Money

Glen James and John Pidgeon take a look at the money issues worrying millennials and Gen Z. Here, the mates and financial gurus talk on investment portfolios EFTs and what the latest policy decisions mean for you. It’s a comprehensive guide that’s spiced up with the conversational tone and banter of two close friends.

4. Equity Mates

Another podcast hosted by two friends is Equity Mates. Bryce Leske and Alec Renehan talk investing across the ASX, taxation while breaking down the barriers to investing. The pair talk to experts in their fields to create a podcast as free from jargon as possible to make the markets more accessible to everyone.

5. You Need A Budget

Short and sweet, the U.S based podcast You Need A Budget (YNAB) touts itself as “the weekly dose of just the right medicine to help you”. Most of the episodes hit under the 10-minute mark including the odd interview with an expert diving into topics such as ‘Budgeting for the nomadic life,’ and ‘Real Estate 101’. The goal of YNAB is to give people the tools to save more money and beat the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle.

6. Shares For Beginners

Does what it says on the tin. Shares for beginners helps those who’ve always wanted to invest in the stock market but have no idea where to start. Leaning on expert guests, host Phil Muscatello simplifies complex investment topics for the lay person to bring the markets within reach for listeners looking to dip their toes for the first time.

Rolls-Royce has unveiled the Phantom Centenary Private Collection, a landmark series of just 25 motor cars honouring the 100th anniversary of its most storied model.

Described as the marque’s most complex and technologically ambitious creation to date, the Centenary Collection is a statement of craftsmanship, symbolism and legacy, three years in the making.

Each Phantom Centenary tells the story of the nameplate’s century-long reign as the pinnacle of luxury motoring.

Every surface, from its embroidered headliner to its gold-detailed engine cover, reflects an element of Rolls-Royce’s history.

The Bespoke Collective of designers and artisans distilled the Phantom’s heritage into 77 motifs that appear throughout the car, created using groundbreaking techniques such as 3D marquetry, ink layering, laser-etched leather and 24-carat gold leafing.

Chief Executive Chris Brownridge called the Centenary Collection “a tribute to 100 years of the world’s most revered luxury item,” describing it as “a motor car which reaffirms Phantom’s status as a symbol of ambition, artistic possibility, and historical gravitas.”

Inside, the rear seats feature more than 160,000 stitches across 45 panels of high-resolution printed and embroidered fabric inspired by historic Phantoms, developed in partnership with a fashion atelier.

The front seats are laser-etched with hand-drawn sketches that reference key design codenames, while the Anthology Gallery installation – 50 brushed aluminium fins engraved with a century of quotes – forms a centrepiece that reads like a living archive.

The exterior pairs Super Champagne Crystal paint with Arctic White and Black tones, finished with iridescent glass particles. Each car is crowned with a solid 18-carat gold Spirit of Ecstasy, enamelled and hallmarked with a bespoke “Phantom Centenary” mark. Even the famed RR badges have been plated in 24-carat gold and white enamel for the first time.

Bespoke woodwork depicts the Phantom’s most defining journeys, from Sir Henry Royce’s homes in France and England to the 4,500-mile expedition of the first Goodwood-era Phantom across Australia. Roads and landscapes are etched in gold, and interior embroidery continues these lines in gleaming thread.

The Starlight Headliner, with 440,000 stitches, portrays the mulberry tree under which Royce once worked, complete with bees from the marque’s Goodwood apiary and constellations referencing legendary Phantoms such as Sir Malcolm Campbell’s ‘Bluebird’.

Limited to 25 cars worldwide, the Phantom Centenary Private Collection stands as both an homage to Rolls-Royce’s past and a promise of its future, a modern-day heirloom crafted to be read, driven and remembered over generations.
