Send us a Text Message.

In today's Money Moments episode, we're joined by Ryan Potter, friend, Senior Front End Developer, and all round good guy.

We chat to Ryan about his journey with money - the good and the not-so-good - plus dig into what he's learned in his 10+ year career as a developer.

Specifically, we chat about:

• What it was like graduating into a recession in NZ and starting at $33k in 2010
• His strategy in negotiating salaries and expected salary ranges for the different experience levels of Front End Developers
• Why Ryan thinks that side hustles aren't worth the time investment
• Why it's vital to always be learning, especially in the tech space
• What it's like buying a home as the sole income earner in a de facto relationship without an agreement

And there is plenty more goodness in there, so start listening now!
