Do you remember when you got paid pocket money or an allowance for the very first time? Were you the kid that looked after every cent, carefully putting it in your piggy bank? Or did you head straight to the shop to blow it all on red frogs and chocolate freckles? Or perhaps you were somewhere in the middle? After all, we all have different spending and saving styles.
Now we are adults things haven't changed that much - though those "pocket money" payments are a lot bigger and there are more temptations to splurge on than just mixed lollies - and that's where our podcast comes in.
Pocket Money the podcast is about money, life, and all the messy bits in between. And, no matter where you are on the finance spectrum, we've got you covered.
Join our hosts Kate Browne and Sally McMullen with some help from a cast of experts as we discuss all the things.

We follow the money wherever it goes, because even though life can be a bit messy sometimes, your finances don't have to be.

Important information about this website
Finder makes money from featured partners, but editorial opinions are our own.
Finder is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stand by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
Please read our website terms of use and privacy policy for more information about our services and our approach to privacy.
We update our data regularly, but information can change between updates. Confirm details with the provider you're interested in before making a decision.
