Money Confessions: I Give Away Huge Sums...

Girls That Invest
About this episode

Welcome back to Money Confessions, a weekly series where you tell us your deepest, darkest money secrets or hot takes. You're joined by Sim and Sonya, two best friends who have *a lot* to say.

This week, Sim and Sonya discuss a Reddit confession about a person who gives large sums of money to random women and is now facing financial ruin. They explore the addictive and self-destructive nature of this behaviour, raising concerns about power dynamics and the need for genuine connections. They suggest seeking professional help and healthier avenues for giving back to society, emphasising the importance of addressing underlying issues and finding fulfilment beyond monetary gestures.
