You only live once – so you should spend all your savings on that Euro trip…right?!

In today’s episode, Kate Campbell and Evan Lucas chat about why we find it so hard to invest for our future selves, how a YOLO approach can harm our financial future and share the powerful impact of investing now (rather than later).
