Host Ruvin Levavi is joined by team members Michael Danes and David Chabot to discuss the major financial decisions faced by younger clients. The team uses their varying ages and experiences to provide different perspectives on key life events and the financial choices that accompany them.

Topics discussed in this episode include:

  • The Cost of Kids: The conversation begins with a discussion on having children and the financial implications. While some, like Michael, are more financially minded about the number of kids they want, others, like David and Ruvin, found the decision was more emotionally driven, with the finances following later.

  • Renting vs. Buying: The team dives into the age-old debate of buying versus renting a home. They explore the financial and emotional aspects of the decision, noting that while renting may make more financial sense in the short term, owning a home can provide a sense of stability and ownership that renting can't.

  • Financial Planning is Not Linear: The team stresses that while financial plans are often modeled linearly, life is not. Things change, and a good financial plan must be flexible and adaptive to life events, from starting a family to changing careers.

  • Investing in Your Future: The episode concludes by emphasizing that while financial planning can be done with a computer program, the decisions are based on life goals and values, not just numbers. The role of an advisor is to help people be more intentional about how they save and invest, helping them to create their own environment and financial future.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
