This year has been undoubtedly the most challenging for contestants as they grappled with fallout of COVID-19 and the lockdown.

Four of our contestants experienced a drop in household income, yet they still managed to meet all their goals set out in January. They are proof that the power to change your financial circumstances lies within you and that you do not have to wait for some ‘miracle’ to achieve financial freedom.

In this final edition of Money Makeover, we recap their journey and hope that it inspires you to create your own financial freedom plan. Read more here.

You can look back on the contestants’ journey and read their motivational letters on FaceBook. Also, listen to a podcast in which Maya and Mapalo Makhu chat to the two winners, Catherien and Nono, about their journey and how they turned their finances around.
