The Cost of Living Crisis, Gen Z vs Boomer Wealth Divide & How it’s Impacting Our Mental Health | Ep. 72

Update: 2024-04-21

Description

In this episode of the Level: Asian podcast, we unpack the housing and cost of living crisis.

We begin by sharing how recent increases in rent, interest rates and groceries have impacted us personally and how we’ve changed our spending habits to adjust. The crew also discusses the challenges different generations face when it comes to wealth building, the changing values towards money and outlooks towards work/life balance.

Davie then explains the dire state of housing affordability in Australia, using his favourite thing in the world (spreadsheets).

Enjoy the episode!
