Banyana-Banyana star Andile Dlamini on sidestepping peer pressure and staying financially responsible

As our national team’s goalkeeper, Andile Dlamini is known for making big saves on the field, but she’s just as focused when it comes to saving for the future and being financially savvy off it.

In this episode of On the Money, she joins Old Mutual’s Group Head of Financial Education, John Manyike, to talk about resisting the pressure to live a flashy lifestyle, avoiding the trap of spending to impress others, and why taking ownership of your financial future matters more than keeping up appearances.

Whether it’s splurging on one too many nights out or saying yes when you should say no, Andile reminds us that true friendship can’t be bought, and that protecting your financial goals takes discipline, confidence and the courage to put your future first.
