Rask Australia
About this episode
If you’ve just finished year 12, TAFE or university, you’re probably starting to realise that the world out there is a big place (especially now that the borders are opening again).

You may also be starting to realise that the place you’ve been spending the last few years of your life, hasn’t exactly prepared you for the reality of being an adult.

Paying taxes, superannuation, insurance, buying a home, investing, being financially prepared for an emergency - it’s a lot!

So in this episode, Kate and Owen share 10 money lessons for recent graduates, which are worth your time, and will make a huge difference to how your financial story plays out.

For many of us who didn’t learn about money growing up, aside from having a sense that we either had more or less than our peers, it’s something that we need to take into our own hands.

Thankfully these days there are more than enough fantastic resources out there through websites, books, podcasts and videos to give you the knowledge you need, if you’re willing to learn.
