'I've got the best in the biz': TikTok star Lauren Whelan on hiring a financial adviser and starting a pension at 23
That's the breakdown of the Gen Z grind, as explained by Lauren Whelan on the latest episode of the Money Talks podcast. Whelan, a popular 23-year-old content creator from Carlow, has established herself as a bona fide social media sensation in recent years, building up an audience of 1.7 million on TikTok alone. So, how does one go about achieving such numbers? Whelan started off by tapping into trends before giving comedy skits a go. It was her move into fashion and beauty content that really raised her game, though, attracting the attention of not just brands, but professional management companies. Influencing might still be a relatively new career option, and its unconventional nature often provokes criticism, but Whelan and the team around her take it very seriously indeed. 'I actually have no fears,' she says. 'Maybe that's a bit delusional of me, but I've seen how far the other girls in my management company have gone, they've been doing it so much longer than I have and they all have their own brands. 'They've ventured off into new things. They've invested in different things. They've taken different routes; they've gone into TV and media. So, I think I'm in a really nice position. 'It's nice to have that platform because you can kind of venture into different things from it,' she adds. 'I'm never in my ear like, 'Oh, I must get a more traditional job because this is a real job.' And like any job, there are long-term financial considerations. Despite her young age, Whelan is already securing her future. 'I am very lucky in that I'm set up with a really good financial adviser and accountant... I have the best in the biz,' she said. ADVERTISEMENT 'I have a pension, which is mad to say at 23. I know it's a bit like, 'Oh, what does a 23-year-old need a pension for? But I think everyone should have one, no matter what age you are, and no matter how much you put into it.' You can hear the full conversation with Lauren Whelan on the latest episode of Money Talks, available now wherever you get your podcasts.

Celebs Go Dating star reveals exactly what the show did and didn't pay for after her date with Christine McGuinness
A WOMAN who went on a date with Christine McGuinness on Celebs Go Dating has lifted the lid on show secrets. Stunning Leanne Grant was seen bonding with the mum-of-three during the first mixer of the series before being whisked off to Ibiza to get to know her better. 4 Christine McGuinness appeared on Celebs Go Dating to find love Credit: Instagram 4 A woman she dated has opened up about the show 4 The pair hit it off straight away She has now revealed she wasn't paid to do the show and shed light on exactly what she had to fork out for on the lavish trip, which ended with Chrstine quitting the show altogether. In a new TikTok video, she explained: 'I wasn't paid for the amount of episodes I was on the show. Expenses were paid for, so my flight to Ibiza was paid for, the mixer was also paid for, the long as you have your receipts, that was all covered. 'They covered lunch and dinner. If we was off-site from the hotel everything was catered for. It was amazing. 'Chef was amazing, the staff were amazing, really, really lovely people. And we had breakfast, lunch and dinner, just like a buffet really. 'So it was like going to Ibiza on an all-inclusive holiday that I didn't have to pay for. Obviously, as a single mum of three, I was gassed.' She continued: 'I did spend a lot of my own money though, not going to lie to you, like in-duty free, a bit of alcohol, Prosecco, a couple of bottles, just to have fun, especially in the night time as well.' Despite getting on well with Christine, her time on the show came to an abrupt end when the Loose Women star - who was married to comedian Paddy McGuinness, 51, until their split in 2022 - made the shock decision to leave during the latest episode. Speaking to the show's agents, she said: "Well, I've been thinking quite a lot whilst we've been in Ibiza and I think I need to date in more of a natural environment. "I think I just would love to meet somebody and date more privately. It's where I'm kind of feeling myself going back, when I want to go freely forward. "Right. And I've made the decision to leave the agency." 4 Christine broke down in tears on tonight's episode Emotional Christine McGuinness opens up about Paddy's 'mistakes' in split saying 'the trust was broken'

Love Is Blind UK star who was CUT from show revealed despite getting engaged in pods
A LOVE Is Blind UK star has revealed that they got engaged in the pods – though their connection wasn't seen on screen. The Netflix dating experiment returned last week with 15 new men and 15 new women entering the "pods" in a bid to find love with someone without ever seeing them. 5 Ross appeared on Love Is Blind UK but was barely seen on screen Credit: Instagram 5 It's not known who Ross's mystery fiancee is Credit: Cr. Courtesy of Netflix © 2025 Participants only get to meet their match once they get engaged – and from there it's a six week whirlwind to the finish line including romantic getaways, living together, and meeting loved ones. However, with so many connections there to be formed, not everyone gets to make it past the initial stages, even if they put a ring on it. Typically on a Love Is Blind season, up to five couples are followed past the initial stages. And one star – Ross Millington – has revealed he was one of the unlucky people who were halted from continuing the process. As TikTok blew up with analysing the first episode, one fan spoke about Ross's brief appearance on the show. While he was rarely seen in the pods, he was shown chatting with the lads in the men's lounge as he went through the process – speaking to Kai (who did make it through to the next stage) and Demola (who was snubbed by potential match Katisha in favour of Javen in the process). Ross, a 30-year-old barber shop owner at the time of the series being filmed, jumped in on one fans TikTok asking more about him. "That was me," he noted as she pointed him out. "I didn't make it to Greece unfortunately. Reveal went well though." Ross didn't elaborate further, but as he went through a "reveal" it is safe to assume he at least got engaged. A grab of the comment was later posted to Reddit, with fans dissecting who the lucky woman could be. Love Is Blind UK star storms off show and says 'get this mic off me' after branding co-star 'disrespectful' in fiery rant "Good thing he didnt make it to Greece, as they went to Cyprus," joked one. "I counted 2 guys and 2 gals during the "I'm engaged" scenes that had zero screen time," said another. "They are still around during those moments and I would assume they may have ended up as a couple but were not picked to go to Cyprus. "Makes you wonder if their connection was boring/lack of drama to not be picked over Javen and Katisha...." "I've never understood why they pick some and not the others and then don't edit it down more in post production if necessary," said a third. Love Is Blind UK continues Wednesday on Netflix. 5 Ross was largely seen in the boys' quarters speaking to the other suitors Credit: Cr.
