Listen "Can saving make us happier?"

Episode Synopsis

Can £2,000 in savings really change your life? Sara Davies from the University of Bristol joins us to discuss two pieces of research commissioned by UK Savings Week: how saving affects wellbeing, and the amounts that can truly protect us from problem debt. We’ll discuss how small, regular savings improve our mental health, what level of savings really protects us from financial shocks, and why it’s the habit – not just the amount – that makes the difference.
