Welcome to Help Me, I’m Poor, the money podcast that’s more Bitsy von Muffling than Bitcoin 💅

This week, we’re taking a look at It’s a Wonderful Life and everything it reveals about money, morality, and the cost of always trying to do the right thing. We explore what it really costs to be the good guy, why George Bailey keeps sacrificing himself for everyone else, and how that emotional and financial pressure shows up in real life today.

We also talk about the infamous Mr. Potter and how his character mirrors the behaviour of modern corporations that prioritise profit over people. From there, we get into how to make smart financial decisions, including loans and investing, in ways that are not only responsible but also eco conscious.

Finally, we explore the tension between selflessness and selfishness and ask whether constantly putting others first is as noble as it seems, or whether it comes with consequences we do not talk about enough.

💼 What We Cover:

• The financial and emotional cost of being the good guy

• Mr. Potter and how he reflects real world corporate behaviour

• How to approach loans and investing in a smart and sustainable way

• The impact of always being selfless and when it becomes too much

Welcome to Help Me, I’m Poor, the money podcast that’s more Bitsy von Muffling than Bitcoin 💅

This week, we’re talking all things And Just Like That and asking the real question: should it exist, and did it officially kill the Sex and the City universe? We break down the highs (were there any?), the lows (many), and the choices that still have us emotionally and financially confused.

We unpack Big dying on a Peloton, Carrie navigating wills and wealth, and why watching rich people get lunch isn't entertaining...

We also get into the wild levels of sponsorship and product placement, why it feels like one long ad with occasional plot, and how the characters have shifted into versions of themselves that feel unfamiliar. And yes, we discuss why sometimes making characters rich removes the struggle, the grit, and the entire reason we loved them in the first place.

💼 What We Cover:

• Should And Just Like That exist

• Big’s Peloton death and the financial fallout

• Why bad sponsorships ruin storytelling

• How the characters changed for better or worse

• Why wealthy characters can destroy a plot

• Why maybe we shouldn’t get another reboot

Welcome to Help Me, I’m Poor, the money podcast that’s more Bitsy von Muffling than Bitcoin 💅

This week, we’re talking all things Sex and the City The Movie and asking the real question: should it have been made and was it actually any good? We look at the highs, the lows, and the parts that have not aged well.

We unpack the on and off relationship of Carrie and Big and why we think he left her on their wedding day. We also get into why Charlotte becomes the joke of the movie and why that feels unfair considering her character arc over the entire series.

We look at how each of the women’s storylines evolve and how the film treats engagement and romance in a way that feels surprisingly subtle compared to today’s social media performance culture. And yes, we talk about the fatphobia throughout the movie because it is impossible to ignore.

💼 What We Cover:

• Should SATC The Movie exist

• Carrie and Big and why he walked away

• Why Charlotte becomes the punchline

• How each woman’s storyline shifts in the film

• Why quiet engagements feel refreshing compared to modern performative culture

• The fatphobia in the movie and how it shapes the narrative
