Is it really that bad to be a NIMBY? This is Money podcast


It’s official: New data shows we complain more about our neighbors.

When it comes to noise, many people seem fed up with barking dogs, squeaking trampolines, and loud music disrupting the fun in their home.

This week Simon Lambert, Lee Boyce and Georgie Frost talk about neighbour wars – and what we can do about them.

And staying on the property front, does it matter if you are a ‘super’ nimby? And if you want to resist developments in your area, what is the sensible way to do that?

We also look at the danger of overpricing a property, and show Rightmove data on how risky this can be.

Grandparents and parents are digging deeper than ever to send their kids to college. What should young adults know before taking out student loans?

Lee goes back to school to talk to kids about money and the job market. But what did HE learn from this experience?

And why has it become so expensive to have fun, from festivals to sporting events?
