Last week on Money Mondays, Xoli and Gerald started asking the dangerous question: What don’t they want you to know about money? This week, we take that question straight into the boardroom. Banks, insurance companies and big corporates love selling us convenience, security, rewards and peace of mind. But somewhere between the admin fees, policy clauses, loyalty points and “free” benefits, your money may be working harder for them than it is for you. So today, Money Mondays asks: What do banks, insurance companies and corporates not want YOU to know about money?

Xoli and Gerald are helping the Money Babies read the room, read the contract, and most importantly, read the fine print. Because sometimes the biggest money lesson is not how much you earn. It’s knowing who is earning from you.
