Money Talk With the Prime Minister: Anthony Albanese on Housing, Childcare and the Cost of Living Squeeze

We finally got to do it... sit down with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and ask the money questions that actually matter to you. Not the political theatre ones, but the real-life stuff that keeps you up at night: the weekly food shop, housing that feels out of reach, and childcare costs that just don’t add up. But this wasn’t all serious policy talk. We dug into his own money story, swapped budgeting habits, and even threw him some of our favourite spicy questions; from Trump’s tariffs to his most unpopular money opinion. His answers? Let’s just say they weren’t what we expected.

In this ep:
💸 The childhood money memory that still shapes the PM today
💸 His plan for tackling your biggest money stresses
💸 How the PM really sees Australia’s housing crisis
💸 The childcare shift that could change family budgets
💸 His hot takes on Trump, crypto and billionaire space trips
💸 The money habit hiding in his wallet
