What I’m Watching
The Arnold documentary on Netflix. Grew up watching this guy’s films, it’s a great 3 part series and anecdotes from the man himself. It’s insightful to hear his mindset when facing challenges throughout his life. My main takeaway: ‘Stay busy, be useful’.
Resource of the week
Martin Lewis’ MoneySavingExpert weekly newsletter is a valuable resource for everything personal finance related and one I always scan when it drops in my inbox.
