Listen now
Description
First up in The Curve Weekly this week, we look at the latest UK budget, a milestone event marked by the first-ever budget created by a female chancellor in over a millennium. We break down why this historic budget matters, not just for those in the UK, but for anyone wanting to understand how national policies impact everyday finances. From the nuances of tax brackets and salary negotiations to the implications of capital gains tax and minimum wage increases. Plus, find out why these changes could mean higher prices at your favourite coffee spot and how strategic salary perks might save you from unexpected tax surprises. We also touch on Donald Trump’s headline-making appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast and its implications, Reddit’s surprising first profit report after going public, Mars’ multi-billion-dollar acquisition of Kellogg’s snack division, and the staggering $20 decillion fine Russia imposed on Google.
