Boost My Budget: Professional money coach shocks couple in live budget review

Get Started Investing

“We want to enjoy life, drink great wine, go on holidays whenever we want… but we also want to save”

Introducing our brand new series; Boost My Budget. We unpack our listener's real budgets live. And with expert help, we show them how to track better, save more, and stress less.

Our first listeners to get their budget boosted, are couple Emily T and Emily B, who want to save for their dream family home while still living in the moment. Is it an achievable goal, or delusional thinking? They're not sure.

They don't have a budget to get them there. In fact, Emily B and Emily T don’t have a budget at all. In their submission to the show, instead of sending us one- they attached a picture from a recent holiday in Bali. (Which told us all we needed to know.)

That's where we come in. With a live unveiling of their spending, cashflow expert and financial coach Lexi Smith from MoneyVine digs into the figures and helps Emily B and Emily T step closer to their goals.
