Summary
Julie finally got the keys. After five years of being told no, single mum, self-employed, rejection after rejection, she walks into her own house for the first time… and immediately realises she owns absolutely nothing to put in it. The excitement quickly turns into “where do I even start?” as the reality of an empty shell hits. No furniture. No sofa. Just a kettle, a toaster, and an air fryer on the way. They break down the bidding war, the panic over new builds, the small €2k jumps that decide your future, and why saving consistently in the credit union actually mattered more than anything else. And just when things get sentimental… Julie gets charged bus fare at a toll booth and becomes convinced she was weighed. Proud moments, financial chaos, a little vindication, and one very confused toll operator. Classic Confession Box. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
