  When needs and wants clash and cause lifestyle creep 09.09.2026 22хв

  In our latest episode of Money: It’s Not Black or White, my co-host Mapalo Makhu and I tackled a likely relatable question: Why do we feel broke? No matter how much we earn, there is a pervasive feeling that it simply is never enough. But are we genuinely poorer than previous generations, or have our lifestyle expectations just gone through the roof? To get a baseline, we took to the streets to ask ordinary South Africans whether they think we spend more recklessly today. The consensus was a resounding yes – from relying on convenient delivery apps like Uber Eats to prioritising new cars over investment portfolios.

  A side hustle can make or break you 26.08.2026 41хв

  The side hustle is plastered all over social media, self-help books, and career advice columns: Your 9-to-5 is no longer enough, and everybody must hustle on the side to stay ahead. But in our latest episode of “Money: It’s Not Black or White”, my co-host Mapalo Makhu and I wanted to unpack this myth with accountant and business coach Alison Burnell. Is launching a side business truly the holy grail of financial freedom, or is it a fast track to burnout and unexpected tax debt?

  From Poverty to Wealth: How mindset can rewrite our money stories 12.08.2026 43хв

  In this episode of Money: It’s Not Black or White, my co-host Mapalo Makhu and I had the opportunity of sitting down with GIBS Professor Frank Magwegwe to discuss his new book, Reclaiming Dignity: My Journey from Homelessness to University. Beyond a narrative of personal resilience, Frank’s story offers a profound masterclass in financial psychology, human empathy, and personal transformation. I have known Frank Magwegwe for over a decade, and what has always struck me is his humility and interest in people. He has an amazing story to tell, yet he finds other people’s stories equally interesting. Although both Mapalo and I knew Frank’s story, it was only by reading his book that we understood the power of gratitude in turning around his fortunes – and it is a lesson I believe we could all learn from. During our podcast discussion, we got to ask Frank about this turning point, the impact financial trauma still has on him today and how he pays it forward.
