Is it more expensive to be single than in a relationship? That's the question we're unpacking on today's episode... Whether it's as boring as the household bills or as exciting as nights out and holidays with friends - the sad reality is that all of these things cost more if you're single. On today's episode we chat with Hannah Ferguson, Founder and CEO of Cheek Media about how the singles tax has impacted each of our lives, the ways in which society rewards "coupling up", and the things that partnered people can think about when it comes to best supporting their single friends.
