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.

    The truth about investing - Patrick Boyle, ex-hedge fund manager

    The truth about investing - Patrick Boyle, ex-hedge fund manager

    Patrick Boyle is an ex-hedge fund trader and one of the biggest finance Youtubers in the world. Famous for his dry wit, he has near three quarters of a million subscribers and his videos get millions of views. As a trader, he spent decades looking at data and using it to try to predict what’s going to happen. We talked about everything from what he thinks will happen over the next 10 years in investing, what he thinks about his success on Youtube and whether Brexit is really to blame for the UK’s economic woes.

    Will you be hit by the UK pensions crisis? Tom McPhail, Pensions industry expert

    Will you be hit by the UK pensions crisis? Tom McPhail, Pensions industry expert

    Tom McPhail is a pensions industry expert. Former Head of Policy at Hargreaves Lansdown he now works for finance consultancy firm Lang Cat. We can’t talk enough about the pension’s crisis. Most people aren’t saving enough for the life they are going to want and something has to be done about it. We cover the big questions: why is there a problem, how much we really need to be saving and will the state pension even exist when you retire? We even cover what’s more important: a house or your pension.

    When banks fail us: my fight against scams and fraud

    When banks fail us: my fight against scams and fraud

    What would you do if you were scammed? Do you know what kinds of things the banks look for when evaluating if you should get your money back?
    Katie Morley is consumer champion for the Telegraph. She’s won back around 10 million pounds for scam and fraud victims including those who should have been protected but weren’t.
    Last year Damo was invited to No.10 to talk about fraud because it's such a big issue. We all know we need to be more aware of the techniques used to target us and our rights if we fall victim
    You can contact Katie at: katie.morley@telegraph.co.uk
    **You usually have up to 6 years to complain to the financial institution - then you must go to the financial ombudsman within 6 months of getting the final response to your complaint from the financial institution. For more information on time limits: https://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/consumers/expect/time-limits**

Chloe Tranter ,

Awesome!

Listening to Damien and Timeyin was brilliant, they make investing easy to understand. They give helpful tips and talk with experts, making it great for anyone interested in learning about money and investing 😁

JTstO ,

No useful tips in the productivity podcast

Listened to the ‘productivity expert’ Ali Abdaal podcast, the hosts seemed really down to earth and probing, but felt like I wasted an hour of my life listening to Ali just talk about easy he has made money and only works 10 hours a week with no useful tips or ways to implement being more productive. Wouldn’t recommend.

Brischap ,

Great fun & informative.

I love these guys, they are so down to earth and great at offering fantastic advice. And they have fantastic guests. Enjoy!
