My 15 year old daughter needs this!

Martin Lewis
Canāt stand the guy but itās a very generous donation.
Interesting it was only to cover education in England and not UK wide however Scotland does already have this built in to the curriculum so I guess other nations and regions already do?
Itās already part of the NI curriculum as well so youāre probably right 
Martin Lewisās documentary is well worth a watch (available on catch-up):

I didnāt expect to be emotionally moved by his life story, but it is surprisingly powerful stuff.
My wife need this!!
I wish I had a better understanding of the power of compound interest when I left school.
I think I had learnt about it, but didnāt really grasp its significance until several years later.
I need this. 
By the way the textbook is available for free as a PDF too. 
This man 
Not only has he paid for a bunch of textbooks and teachers guides to be delivered to English state schools, but heās provided a free PDF version online.
Would have been preferable not to have it this way, and it been executed properly on the national curriculum though.
As you say, should be part of the National Curriculum but at least this is the step in the right direction.
When I was at school, we had one lesson on Banking or Finance in our āLifeskillsā lessons and NatWest came in, but it was just a ploy for them to sneakily open a bank account for every kid in the class! āWeāre practising filling forms inā they said, two weeks later we all had a bank account we didnāt want or need without our parents present!
Sure theyād be some serious litigation if it happened now!
We were supposed to be the generation with the information at our fingertips, driving down the cyber information super highway! This is the sort of thing I needed as a kid, and through my 20s! While Martin Lewis has said it isnāt perfect and not 100% how he would do it, but it is meeting the guidelines set by the curriculum, which is a lot more than I had in school.
Fantastic idea, wish something like this existed when I was in school.
Not sure if itās now built into the Welsh curriculum?
I believe it is. Basically this is only for England as the rest of the regions have already built it in to their curriculumsā¦
I remember in primary school the bank of Scotland would come in once a week and we would have our paying in books and we would deposit our pocket money and stuff!
Thanks for sharing this video. Itās very helpful and useful. I think that we need specific classes in schools that will teach kids money management. For me, itās crucial that kids now to spend and save money.
Right now Iām working on a project for https://edubirdie.com/plagiarism-checker and this book is very helpful for my research.
Anyone see Martin Lewis break down on TV talking about fraud and his defamation case against Google and Facebook?
Moving stuff. You donāt have to like him personally but heās a good man, trying his best to help people.
Yeah. I just wish he had more to say about Monzo, he only ever seems to talk about/push Starling.
He has a lot of influence in the UK and so it would be good to get him promoting Monzo more.
From a purely banking customer perspective, Starling is a better proposition for many. Thereās interest on account balances, international transfers, unlimited foreign ATM withdrawals etc. Iād recommend them over Monzo if I were a financial journalist.
Donāt forget free cash deposits 
He did loads for Monzo, he made it the best free travel card in the world where people would only use it for travel, smash the free ATM usage and never use it again
