- Is UK Property Still Worth It? | Bread & Butter Ep 137
Is buying property in the UK still worth it in 2026?
Prices have stayed flat, interest rates are up, there's talk of a wealth tax and a new 2.5% deposit scheme for first-time buyers.

47 min - £250K From Content, Under 50K Fans | Bread & Butter Ep 136
Is the money from content creation actually real or just for the top 1%?
After a comment accused us of telling people to drop out of school and chase social media, Eman and Tayo set the record straight. Both are professionally qualified, both built careers, and both started making content while working their jobs. The point was never to quit, but to marry the two.The conversation covers the science creator who bought a Urus off content, why your potential market is anyone with a phone, how one brand deal can match the average UK salary, and how Eman made over £250K from content in a year without even having 50,000 followers. We also break down how brand deals really pay, from stories and usage rights to ad spend, and why you shouldn't wait until redundancy is announced to start building another income.And if you've been sitting on the idea for ages, what's actually stopping you from posting your first video?00:00 — Intro03:59 — The Science Creator Who Bought a Urus From Content06:09 — Your Market Is Anyone With a Phone09:49 — Earning the Average UK Salary in One Brand Deal13:06 — £250K From Content With Under 50K Followers16:16 — How Brand Deals Actually Pay: Usage, Stories & Ads18:14 — Stop Feeling Guilty for Wanting More Money20:11 — Don't Wait Until It Starts Raining22:48 — Pick One Platform That Actually Pays You---------------------------------------------------------------------🍞 Join The Table, the Bread & Butter community on Telegram.

Why are more wealthy people looking beyond the UK?

A brother-sister duo. £40,000. Zero food industry experience. And a LinkedIn message that changed everything.
In this episode, they pull back the curtain on the real story: the £20,000 factory quote that nearly killed the idea before it started, the cold DM to a Sainsbury's buyer that got a "yes" before the product even existed, the near-breakdown when scaling from 140 to 400 stores almost broke the business, and the lawsuit that hit at the worst possible time.A real conversation about entrepreneurship, culture, money, faith, resilience and betting on yourself.10:47 – How the idea for Mejifoods came together25:02 – Why it took 3 years to bring the idea to life (and the £20K factory quote)32:28 – The LinkedIn cold-message that got Sainsbury's to say "yes" before they had a product44:51 – No investors, no crowdfunding — just £40K and faith50:40 – Scaling from 140 to 400 stores nearly broke the business58:03 – The breaking point: "I was going to check into a mental hospital"1:04:58 – Their biggest W and biggest L in the journey1:12:42 – Why supporting Black-owned businesses matters#Entrepreneurship #BlackOwnedBusiness #UKBusiness #FMCG #breadandbutter---------------------------------------------------------------------Subscribe, share, and join the Patreon for ad-free episodes, early drops and live sessions with Tayo & Eman: https://www.patreon.com/BreadButterPod?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_fan&utm_content=copyLink🎧 Tap in.
