Summary

The slashing of the cash Isa was considered a nailed on certainty in next week's Mansion House speech, but now it seems Rachel Reeves has had a change of heart.
So, has the cash Isa allowance been saved for good, or is this just a victory for now - before the axe falls in the Budget?
On this episode of the This is Money Podcast, Georgie Frost, Lee Boyce discuss what next for the cash Isa and whether there was any merit in plans to cut the allowance.
Plus, why has Nvidia become the world's first $4trillion company, is it still worth investing in and have you got any chance of finding the next stock market superstar before it takes off?
Should you combine your finances with your partner's and reveal all to them.
And finally, it's the polarising question of our times: are you for or against Ring and other video doorbells?
