Talking about money: ‘Some people outright lied to me about how they got on the property ladder’

She spoke to Woman’s Hour about We Need to Talk about Money and shared some advice about how we can be more transparent and take the shame out of the conversation…“The most important thing is to be honest with yourself. By trying to overspend or taking out credit card debt in order to keep up with your friends, the only person that is going to eventually impact is you,” says Otegha.

“I realised that it was all financial help from the parents, but people often don't share that openly. Sometimes people outright lied to me about how they managed to get onto the property ladder and it really misled me as to my chances of being able to make it happen. “If you’re an over spender then often that means you’re really generous with the people around you and generosity is a lovely quality.
