What was your most recent splurge?
JSS: Physical thing? Shoes. It‘s always shoes. Experience? Travel with my family. It’s always travel.
BB: Taylor Swift tickets!
What is the last money-related book you read?
JSS: Gosh, I haven’t read a money book in ages. I have three books on the go, though. One I’m reading is The Supernova Advisor (Wiley, 2007) by Rob Knapp. It’s about giving exceptional client service, and I’m loving it. Two, Quit Like a Woman (Penguin Random House, 2021) by Holly Whitaker. A girlfriend recommended it as it’s about women’s relationship with alcohol coupled with the patriarchy—a fascinating read. Three, The Highly Sensitive Child (Penguin Random House, 2002) by Elaine N. Aron, which gives support, ideas and collaborative tactics to parents for children who are on the sensitive spectrum. It’s got many wonderful tips in it.
BB: This is totally self-serving, but Personal Finance for Singles. I don’t get to read a lot, so, actually, my book was the last financial book I read cover to cover. I’m in the middle of some others.
What is something you always have in your wallet?
JSS: Cash. I know, I know. Who carries that these days? But I’m rarely without it.
BB: My Nexus card.
What is your favourite possession?
BB: My 1996 Mexican Strat and my more recent Taylor acoustic guitar.
JSS: I’m not tied to possessions, but I’m very strongly tied to experiences. A few of my faves? My husband making me my coffee in the morning, looking deep into my children’s eyes and connecting with them, hearing how the world is seen by them, a quiet night chatting with my husband, and enjoying a glass of wine while catching up with friends.
