With South Africa’s youth unemployment rate among the highest in the world and young people facing mounting cost-of-living pressures, Satrix has partnered with the Money School Podcast, a groundbreaking new platform aimed at building the biggest financial literacy community for young South Africans.
The podcast is designed to unpack financial concepts into practical lessons for everyday life — helping young listeners navigate saving, investing, credit, and entrepreneurship.
Hosted by Karabo Mohole, the show brings together some of the country’s most influential voices in business, entrepreneurship, and financial education.
Guests include seasoned entrepreneurs Andile Khumalo and Stafford Massie, youth trailblazers such as Lethabo Mokoena (Walk Fresh) and Mokgadi Mabela (Native Nosi), and leading financial literacy experts Nicolette Mashile and Maya Fisher-French. Each episode blends expert insights with lived experiences to provide listeners with real-world money lessons they can apply immediately.
“Financial literacy is no longer a nice-to-have — it’s a lifeline. In a country where many young people are hustling to build a future under tough economic conditions, the Money School Podcast creates access to role models, insights, and strategies that can help turn ambition into financial resilience,” says Duma Mxenge, Head of Business and Market Development at Satrix.
René Basson, Head of Brand and Marketing at Satrix, added: “Satrix has always championed democratising investment knowledge. The Money School Podcast extends that mission into a format that speaks to young people where they are — digital, mobile, and hungry for relatable content. Our vision is for this to become South Africa’s most influential financial literacy podcast, shaping better money habits for a generation.”
The first season will explore topics including Building Wealth Young, Understanding Credit, and Entrepreneurship, offering actionable advice from South Africans who have built businesses, navigated debt, and created lasting wealth.
The Money School Podcast is available now through The Money School social media platforms.
