In this episode of "My Money, My Lifestyle," host Maya Fisher French interviews Adrian Hope-Bailie, founder of Fynbos Money, a new investment platform designed to simplify and reduce the costs of investing. 

Adrian shares his journey of creating a platform that addresses the common question: "Where do I start investing?" 

With countless unit trusts and investment options available, it is unsurprising that people feel overwhelmed by choice. The need to simplify choice and administration motivated Adrian to create Fynbos Money, which focuses on emergency and tax-free savings accounts. 

The key behind the Fynbos Money model is that it allows users to set up a single debit order that allocates funds to various savings and investment goals, users can focus on their financial future without the stress of managing multiple accounts.
