Is shopping abroad really cheaper than shopping at home? Are the products in Hungarian stores really of lower quality? Will everything become more expensive once the euro is introduced? On the season-ending financial fact-check podcast.

Our finance podcast has reached the end of its first season: in the past months, we've covered many everyday financial questions, from taxes to saving, banking to investments.

But in the final part, we go in the opposite direction: in the season finale, Mercedes Giukere and Ivan Stoychev check whether there is any truth to the myths we regularly hear about our finances.
