Episode notes
Money as Trust
- Money is a system of trust backed by a central bank, like the Bank of England.
- If trust erodes, currency can collapse, rendering it worthless.
Printing Money Perils
- Avoid printing more money to solve financial problems, as it causes inflation.
- This leads to too much money chasing too few goods, making everyone worse off.
Financial Literacy First
- Prioritize financial literacy over salary size.
- Learn to manage smaller amounts before handling larger sums, or high salaries won't help.
