There are specialist guests telling us things we don't know about. Telling us things we have never done. Things we have never seen and will never do.

telling us things we have never done, things we have never seen. Let me talk in your ear and tell you all the things I've achieved. Morning. Morning. How are you? Good. How are you? This is a good book.
Chapter 2: How did Emmanuel transition from corporate finance to helping everyday people?
How to not be a dick. Who's... OK. Any reason to show me that? No. No, it's just good. It's just... I was just going to say to Naomi, I was going to show Joe this and see if he takes any hints. She bought it for me. Ah, worrying. What is the premise of it? I think I've heard about this. It's just basically, yeah, rules to sort of follow in life to... I like little things like that.
I've got a book with really boring facts. Millions of them. Give me a not to be a dick thing.
Chapter 3: What are Emmanuel's top tips for managing £100 effectively?
I wonder if it's got like... Podcasting tips. Relationships, like marriage maybe. Relationships. Okay. Okay. On today's episode, we have Emmanuel Osukwu, a financial expert, coming on. I think I'm going to be in awe of him. Are you just reading your book now? I am. Okay. The first thing I came across was active listening, and I wasn't listening.
Okay.
Listening sounds easy enough, but it can take real work. Words have to be deciphered and understood. It takes considerable effort and energy to stay focused while someone is offering an in-depth account of his or her deepest passion.
Chapter 4: How can young people build a better relationship with money?
Winning conversations show that you're listening by asking focused questions. Demonstrate your interest by repeating back some of the most provocative points, and then you think, oh, that's a good idea. What was the most provocative point there? That's good. Going forward, if you go, oh, I went to curry, and I go, oh, what curry house do you go to? So you go, oh, I was listening.
That is the provocative point of going for a curry, isn't it? What curry? That is the most interesting bit. Who did you go with? That would be another one. Exactly. What time did you get there and how long did you stay? It may be hard, but it can have a huge impact on the quality of the overall conversation and the other person's opinion of you. There we go.
Chapter 5: What role does social media play in financial education?
Not to not engage you there, but should we not talk about Emmanuel? Yeah. Maybe we could do one of those a week. We were talking about the listening bit, David, and I said... Sorry. Right, yeah. What did I just say? Maybe we could do one of those once a week. And did you ask me a provocative question about what I said? Which day would you like to do it on? Wednesday. Why Wednesday?
Yes, a financial expert. Yes. What do you want to know? Right.
Chapter 6: How can individuals leverage their skills to create income streams?
It's not a world I'm not interested in. It's just something that seems so, like, I have no knowledge of anything financial, so starting to see... What's your relationship with money, Joe? I don't let it go. No. I grip onto it tightly to the point where... I think I do. No. No, actually, I've made a... Yeah, but I think you're like me. You grip onto it.
You sort of taught yourself not to, whereas your instinct is... Like, I weirdly had a conversation with Petra this morning about it, and it was like, because I'm like, safety first, safety first. And she's like, well, you've got to have some fun. If you make some money, you can't always just go, right, okay, so everything goes wrong next year. Do you know what I thought when we were in Sheffield?
What?
spend another fucking 500 quid and let's stay in a really nice place and go, do you know what?
Chapter 7: What are the common financial mistakes people make?
I'm nearly, I'm going to be dead soon. Stay in a nice place. Yeah. I wasn't, I was just, that's like, I was, that's sort of what I'm thinking now. Just push the boat out a bit more. You're going to be dead soon. Yeah. The Airbnb was tossed. But I stayed, I stayed in like a, the next night I stayed in a travel lodge. Yeah.
Chapter 8: How can someone find a mentor to guide them in their financial journey?
It's still bloody expensive.
Yeah.
But I was like, I think I'd rather have gone, I'll bugger it. Yeah, no, I do when I'm there, but when I'm booking it, I'm going, what? Yeah, oh, same here. But, like, financial stuff, like, like, kind of investing money and all that, I just... Hang on, hang on. Hi there. You all right, man? Yeah, you? Okay, it's the postman, it's the postman.
Oh, my God.
Brilliant.
Thank you very much. Cheers, thanks.
Cheers. It's absolutely unbelievable. That's like the lunar eclipse when that happens to me. It's so mental. That came out of the blue. I did not see him coming. The door was just opening. Do you reckon he went across the floor in his belly and then popped up? Okay, so if you don't know, every now and then the postman just comes in and delivers David's mail onto his desk.
David, you look like you're frozen. Firstly, take your fucking shoes off, mate. Also, you look like you're frozen there because it's baffling you so much. I've got a microphone here. I've got earphones in. He doesn't give a shit, that bloke. I'm trying to work out what he's so in his head. He's so about number 14, number 15, number 22.
He's not listening and asking provocative questions back, is he? It's so bizarre. I could be up to it. When you chat to him there, do you get a sense of him forgetting that he came into your office? Because he might listen to this one. My thing is, like, just have a think, mate. Entering someone's... It's like I'm paying an actor to do it while we're on. Great if you have done.
