Learn how to build wealth - investing, pensions, the psychology of money - even things like how to get a payrise. We’re not taught about money so most of us don’t know how to build long term wealth, but with a bit more knowledge and confidence you can change your financial future. Our focus is on the big stuff, teaching you the strategies and mindset shifts that can have a significant impact on your life. This is the financial education we wish we'd had. Hosted by Damien Jordan (YouTube @DamienTalksMoney) and Timeyin Akerele. Contact us: [email protected]

Joshua has written a book ‘Hype Machine: How Greed, Fraud and Free Money Crashed Crypto’. It covers the biggest names in cryptocurrency; how SBF became one of the most famous CEOs in the world; and why the collapse of his company rippled through the industry and led to the crypto crash of 2022.

This is not financial advice. The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life.

How economics really affects you I The Bank of England comes for tea
Studies show that basic economic literacy means doing better with money over the long-term. So we invited Bank of England economists, Rupal Patel and Jack Meaning, round to tea to ask them the big questions:
Why does inflation feel higher than it is?
Is raising interest rates the best way to bring inflation down?
Do politicians understand economics?
Should we be optimistic about the UK's future?
Thank you to everyone who sent us their questions.

Trailer: Making Money
Welcome to the financial education we should've had. It's crazy we're not taught about money in the UK, but the good news is that getting good with money is no harder than learning to drive a car. What are the key steps? That's why we're here.
