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.

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 I Economists Rupal Patel & Jack Meaning
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.

Customer Reviews
Great stuff - really enjoyable
I would say the BOE lady guest in the current episode is the reason people get put off of finance - she couldn’t sound more elitist if she tried . Keep up the good work lads, great to see these themes makings much an important impression (this coming from a city trader with 25 years experience 👍)
Good advice packaged well
The delivery is very good. It’s a very practical podcast without being boring.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Keen YT follower but this sounds even better! Great content and love the guests 👏🏻
