Why aren’t we taught about money — and who benefits from keeping it that way? Abigail Foster wants to fix the UK’s financial literacy problem. A trained accountant, she’s built a massive Instagram following (@abigailrosefoster) and taught over 50,000 schoolchildren through her company Elent. She’s now written a book, The Money Manual — but despite working with institutions like HMRC and the Treasury, she’s frustrated by how little has actually changed.

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.
