REVEALED: There is a way to save your money without losing out
We haven’t left the world’s biggest trading block yet so measuring the success of Brexit is tricky. It hasn’t happened. There’s still no plan.
But what we do know is this.
The inequality gap between rich and poor in Britain is growing.
More than 14million have not been able to save a penny in the last 12 months.
And HALF of earners of £25,000 or less haven’t put cash aside for the rainy days ahead.
But why would you save when the interest rates available are lower than inflation? It means saving is a way of losing money.
Unlike Brexit, there is a plan and it’s possibly an investment plan. And what if there was a timeframe over which you definitely don't lose out?
Join Simon Lambert, Georgie Frost and Lee Boyce for a round-up of how to save and invest, why and where, the pitfalls and the safety nets.
Also on the show:
