The average person in the UK earns … yeah, we just teased you with that, but who doesn’t want to know if they’re doing better than the person next door? In this episode we talk with Timi Merriman-Johnson, an author, creator and founder of Mr MoneyJar, a financial education charity, to get under the bonnet of wealth gaps - averages, gender, ethnicity - and to lay out some key steps to help you climb the ladder.

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.
