Investing alongside family and friends has its advantages and disadvantages, because experiences are never the same for everyone. That’s why we brought back our favourite set of twins to talk about being comfortable with conversations about money between family and friends, and more, for this episode of Easy Does It.

The Stubbs Twins joined us in the studio to delve deeper into their investments and experiences as young investors.

We talked about their favourite investments and their not-so-favourite ones as well. They also share their investment strategies as they debate investing in companies you use, and their divergent risk appetites.

You can now invest alongside the twins by buying their baskets of shares (both in the EasyEquities ZAR and EasyEquities USD accounts). Check them out here:

Nobody likes to think about and plan for their own death, but when you’re investing toward a future that results in generational wealth then you need to know your options. We invited Sascha Graham, Head of Legal at Purple Group, to tell us what happens to one’s easyequities account and investments upon death.

Did you know that your assets and liabilities form part of your estate? But did you know that you need a little paperwork (like a will) and admin (updated death benefits forms) in order to determine how your estate is distributed upon death?

Sascha untangles the complex web of legislations, investment vehicles and paperwork that govern how investments are dealt with upon passing.

While we try to make everything Easy, this conversation and topic may be one that helps when things get difficult. Hit play, and soak in the insights from the Easy Legal Eagle.
