'All our children's' partners are awful - how can we stop them from inheriting our £2m estate?'
When the time comes for our children to grow up and settle down with someone, we can only hope and pray that they choose that person wisely. One couple who know this only too well are Malcolm* and his wife, Penelope, who did all they could to raise their three children to have good judgement. Yet have been horrified by every one of the long-term partners they have each brought home. Malcolm and Penelope have worked hard to build an estate of around £2,000,000, and they wrote to the Telegraph's Money Confidential podcast with fears that when their children eventually inherit this money, it could end up with the unsuitable partners. Their plan is to leave their entire estate equally among their children, but they want to know: how can they keep their hard-earned fortune out of the "bad" partners' hands if their relationships don't work out? ✍️ Need your awkward money problem solved?

"My parents have halved my inheritance and doubled my brother's - what do I do?!"
Since her younger brother was born when she was six years old, Melanie* has always felt he was treated differently by their parents. Whereas she was shipped off to boarding school at the earliest possible opportunity, only coming home to visit twice a year, he attended a local school and lived at home until the age of 24. Recently, Melanie and her brother were called to their parents house where they were told that they had changed how they were going to be distributing their inheritance after both of them eventually die. Instead of splitting it 50/50 between Melanie and her brother as they had previously planned, they announced they had decided to divide it into six parts, four parts for Melanie's brother (so include his partner and their twins), and two parts for Melanie and her only son. For Melanie being told her inheritance had been drastically reduced, while her brother's had increased, felt like a huge slap in the face. On hand to help is professional mediator and psychotherapist, Jessicca McGawley, who deals with emotionally charged family situations like Melanies' every day. Melanie and her brother clearly have very different relationships with their parents, but is it ever justified to treat siblings unequally when it comes to money and inheritances? ✍️ Need your awkward money problem solved?

'My close friend's wedding will cost me £1k - how do I say I can't go?'
There are few more joyous occasions than the weddings of our nearest and dearest, but for one anonymous Telegraph reader, a friends' upcoming nuptials are giving her sleepless nights. A close friend of 25 years has chosen to be a bride in Mauritius, and she's given our reader, who we'll call Ellie, the honour of being a bridesmaid. Though delighted to be asked, Ellie confesses to the Money Confidential podcast that she can't afford to attend the wedding, meaning she will have to decline the invite. Ellie is desperate not to let her friend down, but at the same time she feels she needs to put herself first. She says the cost of going to the friend's wedding will delay her future plans to settle down, and at 31, she feels she doesn't have time to waste. ✍️ Need your awkward money problem solved?

'I'm far richer than my friends - who should pay when we go out?'
The wine is delicious, the food is perfectly cooked, the conversation is relaxed and flowing. Yet there is one thing, especially for us Brits, that can really turn the sweetness of a perfect evening with friends bitter: the awkward matter of who pays for what. On this week's episode of Money Confidential, Katie hears from two listeners at opposite ends of the wealth spectrum, and with very different dilemmas: Maggie* is fed up of being rinsed, while Charles* no longer wants to be lavished. ✍️ Need your awkward money problem solved?

'My business makes almost £1m a year. Why do I feel so inadequate?'
Despite owning his own advertising agency which is on the verge of turning over £1m a year, 40-year-old Atem admits he is crippled with feelings of inadequacy. It would be easy to assume that such an affluent, successful and confident character would feel contented, but sitting in an underground nightclub within a private members club (a client of his) at 10am in the morning, Atem confesses he is haunted by what he describes as "imposter syndrome". ✍️ Need your awkward money problem solved?

"I've saved £200k but I'm too scared of dying to make a will - help!"
After her father walked out when she was six, the stable childhood Catherine had always known was ripped away. Her childhood set her up to be fiercely self-reliant and her attitude to money was also forged in those early years. She rarely spends money on herself and as a result she's saved a total of £200,000. Her wealth feels like a burden and it's keeping her up at night. Since having an intense dream about dying recently, Catherine has been haunted by what it might be like to pass away. She admits putting off the not insignificant task of creating a will, and deciding who she will leave her £200k estate to. Savings deals mentioned in this programme were available as of September 30th, 2024, rates may change. ✍️ Need your awkward money problem solved?

"I'm fed up with my adult child living at home - I'm moving out".
Would you let your adult child move back home and not pay rent? As the housing market becomes more unaffordable, many adults are not only relying on the bank of mum and dad, but the house of mum and dad, with reports suggesting there’s up to 5 million of them in Britain. For some this set up will be hunky dory, but for others it can lead to toe-curling conversations about money. In this episode, Katie chats to “Mark”. Last summer, his adult daughter moved back into the family home with her partner and family in tow. Nine months later, he’s had enough and he’s off. We also hear from financial expert Lisa Conway-Hughes and Telegraph columnist Michael Deacon on practical solutions as well as tips and tricks for navigating this awkward situation. ✉️ Need your awkward money problem solved?
