The Challenge of Job Insecurity - S13E05
The days of a job for life are long gone, even for me, and I’m unfortunately too old to call myself a Millennial. Now more than ever, the employment environment is more fluid than it has ever been, and once again, this provides both challenges and opportunities...

The Challenge of House Prices - S13E04
In researching for this season on Millennial finance, one of the biggest messages that comes across is the likely significant reduction in the number of young people who will be able to buy a house. That may well be true, but I have a sneaking suspicion that, like many of the challenges faced by millennials, this may be another one which can be addressed with some discipline, good habits and laser focus.

Today I chat to Michael Johnson, a man who has been influential in changing the landscape of savings in the UK as he was the man who first proposed the Lifetime ISA. The product that eventually surfaced wasn’t quite what he had in mind, however.

The Challenge of Living Longer - S13E02
It might seem disingenuous to say that living longer is a challenge for Millennials. Of course it is likely to be a blessing first and foremost, but when it comes to affording to live longer, there are somethings that we need to consider, as early as possible, to give ourselves the best chance of making the best of a long life.

She's On The Money with Molly Benjamin
Molly Benjamin is one of those people who, when you meet her, you just know that she’s going places and will leave a big impression wherever she goes. I met her at Chris Ducker’s Youpreneur summit back in early November last year, as soon as she told me what she was up to, I knew I had to get her on the show.

Millennial Financial Challenges: Season Intro - S13E01
It’s another new season here on MeaningfulMoney and as always, I’m excited at the prospect of digging deep into a subject. Looking back over the seasons completed to date, I realised that I haven’t so far addressed the main challenges encountered by folks who are getting started with their financial journey. This season seeks to address that.
