In Part 2 of “The UK is a Trap,” we go deeper into the realities many immigrants and young professionals are quietly facing in the UK. From mortgages that feel like lifelong chains, to car finance that looks like progress but behaves like debt… we unpack how the system is designed, why it feels heavy even when you’re “doing well,” and the mental and emotional toll it takes on people trying to build a better life.
This is not an attack on the UK. It’s an honest conversation about: The true cost of home ownership through mortgages Why car finance is the new silent burden The pressure to look successful while struggling privately How financial stress is quietly impacting mental health And why many people feel stuck even when they’re working hard This episode is for anyone who has ever asked themselves: “Am I actually progressing… or just surviving?” If you’re living abroad, planning to move, or already deep inside the system, this conversation will give you clarity, language, and perspective on what’s really going on beneath the surface. Watch. Reflect. Share with someone who needs this conversation.
