The UK is the most unequal high-income country

We're not going to lie, there's some pretty depressing analysis here because we learn quite how unequal the UK is - how little social mobility there really is. We're speaking to Sir Paul Collier, a world-renowned development economist, a former UK government advisor and a professor at Oxford University. His latest book is Left Behind: A New Economics for Neglected Places: https://amzn.to/4cRWIIm. 💬 Do you have a money story you'd like to share on the podcast? ⁠⁠https://makingmoney.email/listener-story-form 🤝 Want 1:1 financial help from us?

There will be no additional charge for you. Remember investments can fall and rise - and past performance is no guarantee of future results. Other fees may apply. Your money is at risk. 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.
