Rob shares 15 money misconceptions that could be holding you back from financial freedom. From debunking myths about savings accounts to revealing shocking truths about government currency manipulation, Rob shares insider knowledge gained from his own journey to building a £250 million company. Rob covers everything from silver investments to the truth about banks, with practical advice on protecting and growing your wealth in today's struggling economy.



KEY TAKEAWAYS


The banking system isn't designed to protect your wealth - banks pay 1.5% interest while lending at 8-10%, making savings accounts essentially "degrading accounts" that lose value over time
Inflation isn't naturally occurring but a government strategy to reduce debt value - when governments print money, they're effectively stealing purchasing power from existing currency holders
Hard work alone doesn't create wealth - success comes from combining opportunity with effort, explaining why a waiter working as hard as Elon Musk won't achieve the same results
The LMD (Leverage, Manage, Do) time management system - start your day by delegating tasks to others, then manage those tasks, and only then focus on what you must do yourself
True wealth comes from increasing the gap between income and expenses - focus on reducing expenses before increasing income to avoid lifestyle creep
Asset ownership is key to beating inflation - physical assets like silver and property increase in value with inflation while debt becomes relatively cheaper, creating a double win for investors



BEST MOMENTS



"Money absolutely does make you happy. No rich person ever said money doesn't make me happy, take all my money away."



"People work really hard in the gold mines, but it's the people who own the gold mines that make all the money." 



"The bank is not a public service. The bank does not care about you. The bank does not save your money. It invests your money." 



"Why would someone spend a thousand quid on a TV that will be worth 150 quid in three years, but they wouldn't invest a thousand pounds into their health, wellbeing or their knowledge?"

The Money Podcast

Top 15 Money Misconceptions: The Truth Banks Don't Want You to Know

Rob shares the things that you buy that actually end up saving or making money in the long run. From hiring private drivers to strategic watch collecting, Rob shares insider knowledge on how spending money wisely can create more wealth. He challenges conventional thinking about luxury purchases, explaining how items like supercars can be smart business tools when structured correctly!



KEY TAKEAWAYS
How much is your time worth? Hiring a driver can be more cost effective than driving yourself, as it allows for productive work time during travel. For high-earners, the opportunity cost of driving themselves can far exceed the driver's fee!
Watch collecting, particularly with brands like Rolex and Patek Philippe, can beat inflation as well as open doors to valuable business connections and networking opportunities.
Luxury cars, when purchased through the right company structure (LLP), can offer significant tax advantages and serve as powerful marketing tools that attract clients and enhance brand value.
Investing in domestic help (cook, cleaner, housekeeper) can significantly boost productivity with the time saved being redirected to income generating activities.
High quality, low volume clothing purchases are better investments than frequent cheap purchases, as they last longer and make you look better too.
When planning inheritance, matching children's earned income and teaching them business principles is more valuable than simply leaving them wealth.



BEST MOMENTS

"It is a far better use of 10 grand to have it in a Rolex than to have it in a savings account. Because in a savings account, that will go down in value every year and be used by the banks and the government at your risk."



"A good hour of work for me is about five grand... and a driver costs me, I don't know, a couple of 300 pounds per hour or per journey sometimes, depends on the car that you get."



"Anyone who buys their kids designer clothes is showing off or showing their own insecurities through their kids. So I think it's an absolute waste of money and it's grotesque."



"I personally believe that the greatest gift you can give your children is education. As opposed to a thousand properties to manage or a billion dollar company."

Expensive Things That Actually Make You Money

Rob passionately exposes the hidden world of taxation, revealing how we are all paying in at least 75 different ways! From VAT to "stealth taxes" on sugar, Rob breaks down why the current system is broken and proposes controversial solutions, including why you shouldn't take a salary. This episode gives useful advice on how entrepreneurs can navigate the tax system, maximise their earnings, and why flat-rate taxation could revolutionise the UK economy.



KEY TAKEAWAYS
A flat rate tax of 20% across all income levels could attract more investment, encourage entrepreneurship, and generate more revenue than the current progressive system by bringing billionaires back to the UK.
The current tax system penalises success through progressive taxation, with some brackets reaching 60% tax rates between £100,000-£125,000, effectively discouraging economic growth and overseas investment.
Business owners should consider replacing traditional salaries with performance based commission structures to increase motivation, accountability, and potential earnings while reducing tax burden.
Most employees are experiencing "Salary Stockholm Syndrome," becoming dependent on the perceived security of a regular salary while actually limiting their earning potential and paying the highest tax rates.
Entrepreneurs can significantly reduce their tax burden by running expenses through their business, including hardware, travel, and vehicles, paying tax on what's left rather than the gross amount.
Government inefficiency and complex tax codes are causing massive waste. Simplifying the system and reducing civil service bloat could improve economic outcomes.



BEST MOMENTS

"When you take a pound or dollar you might be left with 20 pence or cents. When you save a pound or dollar, you save the whole pound. So when you save tax, you save the whole pound." 

"If you borrow a million pounds from the bank, you have the problem. If you borrow a hundred million pounds from the bank, they have the problem." 

"Small businesses account for 55 percent of all the economy. That's just small businesses and small businesses are the ones getting hurt the most." 

"Financial Stockholm syndrome is when you develop an addiction and a relationship with your salary, but your salary is keeping you broke."

75 Ways You're Being Taxed (And How to Fight Back)

Rob speaks to Kane about one of his greatest moves as an entrepreneur. He shares how he bought Think Big Education, an Australian education company, for just 5k and rebranded it to Progressive Success, transforming it into a multi-million-pound business. 



KEY TAKEAWAYS
Rob was actually working for someone else at the time and took a game-changing speaking course in Australia, Think Big Education. After his success after attending the course he began speaking for them and created a network.
During the 2008 recession, he then heard from his network that the company was struggling, he found a way to buy it.
Rob can make £2-£5 per person from an email database and at least £1-£2 per person on social media, even though data and reach are so much harder now!
Buying his horrible ex-boss’ furniture after his company went bust is one of Rob’s career highlights!



BEST MOMENTS

"I paid 5 grand for this company”

“In ’08 5k is what 10k is now”

“If I couldn’t make £5 per person from an email database I’d need shooting in the face”
