Stephanie Barry Woods and her husband Tim quit their jobs in 2016 to travel the world. They haven't lived back home since. The Cork native goes by @StephMyLife on social media where she shares all her best travel tips, as well as how she and Tim managed to save €100,000 in four years to fund their adventure. In this episode, Steph elaborates on what she did as a formerly financially illiterate twenty something to become an astute saver. Conor Pope also joins the podcast to explain the different savings options currently on the market, and where you might put your money should you be in the fortunate position to do so.
