Why Is Buying a House SUCH a Nightmare? (And How the Government Wants to Fix It)

mercredi 9 septembre 2026 • Durée 21:37

Buying a house in England is famously one of the most stressful processes in the world — no real commitment from either side until the very last minute, surprise gazumping, and estate agents with zero formal qualifications. In this episode of Skint, Connie and Mik dig into the government's proposed overhaul of the home-buying system.

Sales packs: sellers disclose chain position, covenants, leasehold/freehold status and planning history before a property is even listed
Earlier commitment: moving toward binding agreements sooner in the process, as seen in France and Scotland
Digital property records: what's changing and the security questions still being worked out
Professionalising estate agents: from a non-mandatory code of practice to future qualifications
Stamp duty pain: now over 10% on properties above £1m, and how it's stalled the market and killed off quick property flips

Whether you're buying, selling, or just skint and curious, this one's for you.

ISA's!! Everything You Need To Know... Without The Confusion!

jeudi 3 septembre 2026 • Durée 32:29

ISAs were designed to be simple, tax-efficient savings accounts, but over time, they’ve gotten surprisingly complex. In this episode of Skint, host Mik breaks down everything you need to know about Individual Savings Accounts.

The discussion covers:

ISA Types & Limits: Navigating the £20,000 annual allowance across Cash, Stocks & Shares, Lifetime (LISA), and Innovative Finance ISAs.
Junior ISAs (JISAs): How to build long-term wealth for children with the £9,000 allowance—and why holding too much in cash can backfire.
Upcoming Rules & Policy Changes: The new £12,000 cash ISA limit for under-65s, tax on cash interest, and the transition from Lifetime ISAs to First-Time Buyer ISAs.
Smart Investing Strategies: Why ISAs are tax wrappers rather than standalone investments, the benefits of global diversification, and why long-term investors should ignore short-term market noise.

Whether you're starting with £5,000 in savings or just trying to sound smart at your next dinner party, this episode offers a clear, low-pressure guide to making your money work harder.

Savvy Squirrel: The Government Wants You to Invest (But Should You?) *not financial advice*

mardi 4 août 2026 • Durée 22:39

The government made a squirrel to fix your finances. Let's talk about it.

The government has launched a new campaign to get the UK investing. It's called Invest for the Future. It's fronted by a cartoon squirrel.

Mik breaks down what the Savvy Squirrel campaign actually is, who's behind it and why it exists. He explains how there are billions of pounds just sitting in cash ISAs and savings accounts doing very little, and why the government thinks getting that money moving could make a real difference for both the economy and for you personally. He also covers what the upcoming changes to your Cash ISA allowance mean and how it all connects.

Connie asks what we're all thinking. If you've never invested before, where do you even start? And should a cartoon squirrel really be the thing that gets you there?

Whether you're already investing or the whole thing feels like it's not for you, this one might change how you look at what your money is actually doing.

Money on the Mind: The Psychology of Spending, Saving and Investing

mercredi 27 mai 2026 • Durée 26:17

What if the way you think about money is the thing holding you back?

This week Mik takes a step back from the numbers and paints a bigger picture. He walks us through the psychology behind how most of us think about earning, spending, status and investing, and why those instincts don't always work in our favour. He breaks down how thinking about risk earlier, understanding probability and spreading your investments can quietly change the direction of your finances over time.

Mik also tries to shift Connie's perspective on what money and status really mean, and whether the two should be as connected as we make them.

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but your relationship with money still feels off, this one might reframe a few things.
