First up, a Wimbledon winner takes home £3 million, but a player ranked 150th can't even afford their own lunch? Vic breaks down the brutal economics of tennis, how Centre Court tickets became high-return investments, and what happens when live sports suddenly become a massive lifestyle trend. Then, a historic $124 trillion is about to change hands, and 70% of it is going straight to women. We unpack why the traditional finance industry is completely unprepared for this shift, why the majority of widows fire their male advisors within a year, and the awkward conversations we need to start having with our parents.
