Rethink Tax

Season 2 is finishing on a cracker of an episode just in time for Christmas. Join me as I sit down with Ryan King, the man behind Making Money Simple.

We delve into Ryan's personal experience of becoming an investor, from his time at uni where he started to read about why he should be investing to creating his own platform to share his financial journey with others. With over 20,000 followers online Ryan has found a niche where he leads by example sharing his monthly investment portfolio and shares stories about investment dos and don'ts.

Listen to this episode to find out why you need to be an investor and why you may already be one! We cover investments in:

- Individual Savings Accounts
- crypto

Do taxes apply differently depending on your gender? This is the question that the wonderful sisters and co-founders of Juno - Margot and Alexia - join me to discuss. We talk about the 'Pink Tax': what it is and how it impacts on women and those who identify as female.

We explore what individuals can do to educate themselves on issues relating to money confidence and where business and government have a role to play in changing the systems that leave women in a place of financial inequality. Listen as we discuss Tax & Gender.

How do tax and healthy food choices come together and more importantly, should they? These are the questions I put to Andy Webb, creator of Be Clever With Your Cash. We explore how tax is nudging us to buy healthier food through the Soft Drink Levy and proposals for a new Salt and Sugar tax in processed foods. Andy shares his thoughts on whether these taxes are driving positive health outcomes and how these taxes can end up changing the cost of your meals at the supermarket or online. Join us as we discuss tax & food.

Charlotte Jessop - teacher, mother, author and all round queen behind Looking After Your Pennies talks with me about V.A.T. a tax on consumption that we all pay on our everyday purchases and hardly ever notice.

We explore the weird and quirky rules that determine how much VAT you pay on food, clothes and personal care items. We put to rest important debates on whether a Jaffa Cake is a cake or biscuit, what the average size of a 14 year old child is and the ultimate question: is a Pringle a potato crisp?

BONUS EPISODE:

Stephanie Brobbey of The Good Ancestor Movement and Rebecca Gowland of Patriotic Millionaires join me in a special episode to talk about the Pandora Papers.

In October 2021, the International Consortium of Investigative Journalism broke the stories of many current and former world leaders involved in arrangements which they say "reveal the inner workings of a shadow economy that benefits the wealthy and well-connected at the expense of everyone else."

Steph, Becks and I discuss what the Pandora Papers are all about, why they matter and what you need to know about the revelations. Join us as we talk Tax & Others.

Join me as I talk with Timi Merriman-Johnson (aka Mr MoneyJar) about how to break the taboo of talking money in your relationships.

We discuss how romance and financial adulting can live side by side. We delve into the marriage allowance, will writing and inheritance tax and end up concluding that the key to relationship financial magic is to start small...preferably over a cheeky Nando's!
