Summary
How to spot where a euro note is from is on the agenda, as Simon Lambert and Lee Boyce join Share Radio star presenter for a lively look at the week's money news.
This week they also discuss when the age we hope to retire at - and why that is getting older - and the new bank that has an app but no branches.
They also talk about how much to offer on a home and why the new simple flat-rate state pension is actually very confusing. #euro #greece #mortgages #haggling #homes #toptrumps #pensions
