Timi MJ aka Mr Money Jar | Take That First Step Towards Financial Literacy | Real Money Stories

On this episode of Real Money Stories, I speak to Timi Merriman-Johnson, finance manager and founder of Mr. MoneyJar.

Face-to-face with an eviction notice and overwhelmed by expensive living costs, four years ago Timi decided enough was enough. It was time to improve his life by getting better control of his money. Through a process of self-directed learning, gradual changes and a consistent approach, Timi now has money confidence. Through his popular ‘Mr. MoneyJar’ alter ego, he helps others do the same.

A very candid episode with a focus on how to take that next step to better educate yourself about money. You can check out Timi and his fantastic money conversations on the Mr. MoneyJar show, every Monday at 18:30 GMT, over on Instagram @mrmoneyjar. (And see if you can spot a familiar face in the archives!)
