Gold prices are on the rise… but does that mean you should be out here buying bars? This week’s Friday Drinks kicks off with a shiny dilemma: one listener wants to know if investing in gold bullion is a smart financial move, or just a panic response. So we're chatting about when gold actually makes sense as an investment (and whether that jewellery sitting in your drawer is secretly part of your portfolio). Then we get personal: would you delay your dream job just in case you want to have kids someday? We dive into the pressure to plan around maybes and how to make big life decisions when nothing feels certain. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Friday ep without your money wins and broke tips.
