Deborah Meaden is a living legend in this country. Famous from her nearly two decades on Dragons’ Den, she became an entrepreneur at 19 years old. Her family didn’t have much money when she was growing up so she figured out how to get it - and grafted. Deborah explains how you should think about money, what she looks for in a business and how to teach kids about it so they can achieve their dreams.

Everyone talks about diversification, but how diverse do you really need to be? Can you just invest in one fund? Ramin Nakisa is personal finance YouTube royalty in the UK. He’s one of the OGs who showed Damo that it can be done. But he’s also a ridiculously smart, former investment banker who left that world to teach ordinary people how to build wealth because, like us, he thinks there’s a ridiculous financial education hole in this country. Ramin walks us through some of the major assets classes, and their pros and cons - but also why one investment might just be enough for you to beat most professional investors, forever. This episode was recorded in July 2023 so some information may have changed since then.  ...

Financial institutions like banks have sometimes failed, so we want to know what happens to your money if they do.

Your bank has to be regulated in the UK and a bank is defined by the organisation that has a banking license which can cause problems. The FSCS don’t just cover banks though and there are plenty of important nuances, so let’s get to the bottom of it - when is your money protected? -- Get us into your business to teach personal finance Want us to come into your workplace to help your people get more from their money?

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?
