Money Hacks
Episode 12
Duration: 8:25 mins
Synopsis: In this new podcast series for 2018, The Straits Times and The Business Times offer tips for the newcomer to the financial investment scene.
How can you plan your finances better in your 40s, while keeping an eye on the future, and the cost of inflation? Is youth an asset when you're in your late 20s, when it comes to taking more financial risks to grow your money?
What can you also do at the age of 18, if you want to think ahead before feeling the pressures of the rat race and putting aside financial planning till it's too late?
We ask Mr Vasu Menon - vice-president and senior investment strategist (wealth management) at OCBC Bank - for his thoughts on our scenarios.
Produced by: Ernest Luis & Christopher Lim

Why It Matters
Episode 5
Duration: 8:36 mins
Synopsis: In this new podcast series for 2018, The Straits Times takes a close look at one key news talking point each week.
Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has already announced that his government intends to scrap the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore high-speed rail (HSR), in a move to control government spending and reduce the nation's RM1 trillion (S$337 billion) debt burden. The Mahathir administration said that the cost of building the line, at RM110 billion (S$37 billion), is prohibitive considering the state of Malaysia's finances.
The Singapore Government has said it is continuing to incur costs on the High-Speed Rail (HSR) project while it awaits clarification from Malaysia regarding its intention to scrap the HSR. The 350km rail link was expected to cut travel time between the two cities from four hours by car currently to 90 minutes when completed in 2026.
Should Malaysia cancel the project, Singapore will study the implications and exercise its rights - including any right to compensation for expenses - in accordance with the terms of a bilateral agreement signed in 2016.
Host and ST's deputy news editor Jeremy Au Yong dissects the issue with ST's deputy political editor Royston Sim and transport correspondent Adrian Lim.

It's a final that Liverpool fans will probably prefer to forget.
Their main striker brought down, two goalkeeping blunders and a team seeming trying to keep it together.
It all ended 3-1 to Real Madrid for a record third consecutive final win.
Host Jonathan Roberts (a Liverpool fan) also tries to keep it together as he discusses the aftermath and implications of that night in Kiev with ST Sports correspondent Sazali Abdul Aziz...

Solo: A Star Wars Story has had a troubled production, with the original directors being jettisoned mid-production and rumours of the lead actor requiring acting lessons.
But is it a contender for turkey of the year? Can Alden Ehrenreich act? And could there be a future character called Alabaster Funky?
This and many others questions will be answered as host Jonathan Roberts, The New Paper's lead film reviewer Joanne Soh and SPH Content Lab Creative director Kelvin Chan review the early years of Han Solo.
