Popular radio presenter speaks on going broke despite having a six figure salary

She learnt the hard way

A popular female radio presenter has opened up on going broke at one time, despite having a six figure salary.

Carol Radull who is one of the most established female sports journalists revealed that she always went broke despite earning a handsome salary, while she worked for international media houses like the BBC and Reuters, in an interview with SDE.

Radull said that she started earning so much money at a young age and she would take her friends out most of the time without saving a cent.

“I started earning good money when I was very young. Despite earning a six-figure salary, I was not saving. I would walk into a bar with almost 20 friends and shout ‘peweni!’ My account was always at zero every end of the month.” She said.
