The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life. 00:00-03:01 - What it's been like to cover the Budget? 03:01-05:07- Was the 22 billion black hole over-stated? 05:07-17:50 - National Insurance 17:50-22:38 - Stamp Duty 22:38-31:03 - Pensions 31:03- 39:11- What did they do right? 39:11-49:11 - Inheritance tax and farmers 49:11-01:01:21 - Which areas will get the most money? 01:01:21-01:04:53 - Devolution? 01:04:53-01:11:15 - Will the money be wasted? 01:11:15-01:19:54 - Will the UK economy grow? 01:19:54-01:22:45 - Are more taxes coming? 01:22:45-01:26:23 - Are you better off?
