On this episode, Zak & Emma are joined by Laudjah who is sharing his story

Upon release from prison, Laudjah struggled to adapt financially to the new world he was facing. He went from working every hour possible, to some frivolous purchases before returning to a life of a crime. Laudjah used his next stint inside to prioritise getting things right in his life. He took courses to make himself more employable and had a plan for when he got out...

This time things are looking better for Laudjah, he is investing in himself and has a much better appreciation of money. His old life of selling drugs he says is 'beneath him' and he is doing everything he can to leave that in the past and move forward.
