| 0:00.0 | So Deborah, you've written a great new book called Deborah Talks Money. |
| 0:03.3 | I think that's great because I do believe we've got a financial literacy problem, a challenge in the UK. |
| 0:09.1 | So what is the summary of the book and who needs to read it? |
| 0:11.6 | So first of all, I wrote it for exactly that reason. |
| 0:13.9 | We are not taught financial literacy in school, which I find absolutely staggering. |
| 0:19.0 | You can do nothing without understanding money. |
| 0:21.2 | And you can start your life with a really bad relationship with it or a really good relationship |

| 1:01.4 | mortgages or I read about interest rates or I read about, you know, well, whatever, you know, |
| 1:07.1 | and then then go and take it off the shelf and think, oh, yeah, that's what I need to know. |
| 1:11.3 | So that's my plan for the book. |
| 1:12.5 | Yeah. |
| 1:12.9 | I actually just finished reading it because I obviously knew we were talking today. |
| 1:16.5 | And I think that just introducing those concepts to children at an early age will have such |
| 1:22.3 | an unbelievable compound effect on their life because I remember when I first started my first business, I knew |
