Meet The Team

Adam
CEO

When he was young, Adam made more bad financial decisions than he’s had hot dinners. Now he’s officially the oldest man alive, he wants to make sure young people don’t make the same mistakes.

Angela
Editorial Director

Angela’s main hobby is to Netflix and chill and that saves her a lot of money.

May Sim
Assistant Editor

The best piece of financial advice Sim received when she was young was one plus one equals two and to make payments when they’re due.

Cherry
Finance Lead

In her former life, Cherry managed funds for people. She’s now using that knowledge to help young people to manage their funds better in a fun manner.

Wai Kaye
Senior Graphic Artist

Wai Kaye (also known as Kaya in these parts) is living proof that you don’t need to know math to teach people how to budget.

Kaylee
Graphic Artist

Kaylee’s motto is it’s better to be safe than sorry, so always think twice and research before spending!

Sofia
Graphic Artist

Spending too much on things she doesn’t use is how Sofia learnt that the best way to save money is to just say no.
