    Feel better about debt?

    Our aim is to help you understand money better. And that means understanding debt better. Is debt bad, or just a means to an end – like buying a house, a car, or a holiday? Should we be afraid of debt and if we have debts how best should we handle them? And we learn about how debt is seen by the banks, building societies and others, and how it forms part of what makes up your financial profile. All with the help of consumer rights expert, Martyn James. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
