Maddy and Sophie are taking a break this week, so we're replaying an old favourite from our first season!

We all know that Google can lead us down a rabbit hole of information, and when it comes to investing it’s no different. The amount of info and differing opinions out there can seem overwhelming, but we think that if you stick to a couple solid resources that make sense for you, then the research process can be interesting and fun! Today we speak with three of our community members, Kate, Zac and Sascha, about where they find their investing information and some of the techniques they incorporate into their everyday life that help them to discover good investments! Take a leaf out of their book and we promise that searching for good investments will start to come naturally!

Visit the ASX website to read the rules and register. Sign up to the Equity Mates league with the League ID: 34788 and the password: EMMedia9.

Keep track of Sophie and Maddy between the episodes on Instagram, or on TikTok, and come and be part of the conversation on Facebook with our You’re In Good Company Discussion Group.

The Australian start up space has grown significantly over the past 10 years and we have seen some of the biggest names in tech come out of Australia – Atlassian, Canva or Afterpay sound familiar? Well once upon a time, these companies were just ideas and came to life with the support of ‘angel investors’, who believed these ideas could change the world. Today we chat with Cheryl Mack, the founder of Aussie Angels, about investing in start-ups, what characteristics are common in a successful company and how a community of people are starting to democratise start up investing to make it more accessible for the everyday investor.

Net worth is a concept that is increasingly being shared on social media to portray someone’s total wealth. But what is net worth and is it the best figure to be looking at? Today we chat with the incredible Aleks Nikolic, the face behind Broke Girl Wealth, about why she believes sharing net worth on social media is a powerful conversation starter. We also host the very first Controversy Corner and ask about some of the biggest finance controversies, including what do we think of BNPL or are NFTs really worth it, and debate our thoughts.

Courtney Ray is the CEO and founder of Daily Blooms, an online florist operating across Melbourne and Sydney. After making the move from finance to floristry in 2014 with just $500, Daily Blooms blossomed (ha!) to $35 million in revenue last year. Courtney is flower obsessed, sustainability focused, and late last year she brought on an external investor in the business for the first time. We were fortunate to have Courtney join us on YIGC to share her wisdom.

The global economy is very different to what it was a year ago, which means the stock market is too. On this week's episode, we're chatting with a friend (aka Sophie's housemate) who has been investing for around a year now, about what she's been hearing about how to invest at a time like this. We discuss different companies and industries that we think might outperform in the current market and add them to our hypothetical portfolio.

We're excited to have partnered with the ASX to play the ASX Sharemarket Game. The game gives you an opportunity to learn about investing in the share market, without needing to put real money on the line. To join the Equity Mates league, go to the ASX portal, join the league under the 'Resources' menu, use the League ID - 34788 and Password - EMMedia9.

What a time to be investing! This week we're joined by a very special guest, Mary Manning, who's a Portfolio Manager at Alphinity Investment Management. She talks to us about how to make sense of what's going on in the economy at the moment, when our portfolios might be showing a little bit of red, and things seem more unpredictable. Mary talks about the different industries she looks at through her work, and then we finish with a game we've invented - fad or future?
