Episode Synopsis

In this episode we are joined by award-winning money journalist Paul Lewis. He talks to Mubin about his latest book, Money Box. Bearing the same name as the popular Radio 4 programme, which Paul has presented for over two decades, Money Box takes readers through each financial stage of their life. From choosing credit cards and buying your first home, to marriage and will-writing, Money Box has it all covered.
Paul discusses people’s experiences of fraud (not-so-fun fact: you are more likely to be defrauded than come across any other crime) and how to prevent falling victim to fraud.
He reflects on the cost of living crisis, how people are coping with rising bills and what people are doing to manage their bills. Pensions are also discussed in depth, auto-enrolment, how to ensure you are saving enough for old age and what you can do it you are not.
