SA rethinks what generational wealth really means - And it’s no longer about what you drive

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 17:39:49 +0000

Stephen Grootes speaks to Hayley Parry, Money Coach and Facilitator at 1Life’s Truth About Money about new survey findings showing how South Africans are redefining generational wealth in a tougher economic climate.

Friday File: CarShareNova bets on the sharing economy - Unlocking value from idle luxury cars

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 17:01:02 +0000

Stephen Grootes speaks to Themba Mgimeti about how his start-up CarShareNova is rethinking car ownership by turning vehicles, especially luxury cars into income-generating assets. Often compared to an Airbnb for cars, the platform allows owners to rent out underutilised vehicles to vetted users via a fully digital marketplace, using AI, smart insurance and secure payments to manage the process. With hundreds of premium cars already listed, the model challenges the idea that cars are purely depreciating assets, instead enabling owners to earn passive income while reshaping the traditional car rental industry.

Personal Finance: Why you shouldn’t DIY your will – the value of expert advice

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 18:10:49 +0000

Stephen Grootes speaks to Sharon Hamman, senior legal adviser at Momentum, about the complexities of estate planning and the risks associated with drafting a will without professional guidance. In the South African context, a will must meet strict legal requirements, but more importantly, it must be practically executable, ensuring there is sufficient liquidity to cover debts, taxes, and administration costs. Without proper structuring, estates can be exposed to unintended consequences such as assets being sold to meet tax liabilities, disputes among beneficiaries, or distributions that don’t align with the testator’s wishes under intestate succession rules.
