For years, our Money Diarist thought she was doing okay financially—bills were paid, life was good, and saving for the future? That was a later problem. But at 45, she read her first finance book changed everything. Suddenly, she realised she had no real plan, no investments, and no idea how to make her money work for her.

Fast forward to today, and she and her partner are completely debt-free, traveling full-time, and working just six months a year to fund their dream lifestyle. No mortgage, no office job, no regrets. In this episode, she shares exactly how she turned things around, why she walked away from the traditional homeownership path, and how she’s building financial security—on her terms.

If you've ever thought "it's too late to start", this episode will change your mind.
