Why do so many people feel that the financial system is rigged against the average person, that the system is built to benefit the elite at the expense of the average person?
In this podcast Maya has a frank discussion with David Buckham, founder and CEO of Monocle Solutions and author of The End of Money, The Age of Menace and Why Banks Fail, about the inherent flaws in the banking system and the reasons behind the erosion of trust across all areas of society – financial and political.
They unpack what is behind the narrative that South African banks have actively worked to weaken the South African currency; what or who is to blame for the rising global inequality and why we have more billionaires than ever, yet average people are struggling to pay their bills.
