Welcome to Quarter Life Questions with me, Grace McIntosh — the podcast where we tackle the real, sometimes messy questions that come with being in your twenties.
This week’s episode is all about money — specifically, how to start investing in your 20s so you can be better off in your 30s (and beyond).
There’s a lot of info out there, and half of it sounds like you need a finance degree or a spare £10k to get started. But here we break it all down and go back to basics — no jargon, no dodgy quick-win schemes, just practical advice you can actually use.
✨ In this episode, we cover:
Why your 20s are the best time to start investingCommon myths and misconceptions that hold people backHow much you really need to get started (spoiler: not much)Are side hustles the perfect investment? The importance of self investment - what does this look like and where to start💼 Expert Guest: Bola Sol
