How to be Rich without Really Trying
Jasmine gives this practical and entertaining talk to employees and association members both in-person and online and has already helped thousands of people learn how to manage their money and gain confidence in investing.

This is the perfect talk for companies and associations that want to offer members or employees a talk that will entertain them while increasing their bank balance!
The Financial Apocalypse and Your Money
Jasmine runs The Tin Hat Money Podcast, which specialises in facing the financial future, which looks worrying.
She also discusses the ‘financial apocalypse’, which, she believes, must come sooner or later as we in the West keep trying to print our way out of debt.
Just how much are our countries in debt? Which currency will crash first: the Euro, the Pound, the Yen or the Dollar?Will Bitcoin save us, or will we be forced into Central Bank Digital Currencies…or ‘digital slavery’ as she likes to put it,
What does this mean for governments, businesses and individuals? How can they protect their wealth, and what should we be doing now – particularly on a government level – to stave off an almighty, worldwide crash?
Prepare for an explosive speech!
The economic landscape and how consumers are managing… or not managing
Jasmine is regularly asked by companies, associations, charities and Government departments to give an overview of how the economy is faring and, in particular, how the consumer feels.
She gives an informative and entertaining talk, including videos, first-person stories, statistics and quotes that paint a clear and colourful picture of the economy and how individuals cope daily.
As a Daily Mail columnist, the editor of MoneyMagpie.com, and a commentator on TV and radio programmes, she is in a unique position to speak for consumers of all types and explain often dry economic statistics in a way that is entertaining and understandable.
Future trends in Fintech
What can the UK consumer expect in the next five, ten or twenty years?
How will we be spending, saving and investing?
How much will technology be running our lives, and how will that impact the culture of the nation?
Will our outlook keep expanding globally, or will we stay closer to home?
Jasmine is often asked to comment on these and other questions and is increasingly booked to speak to companies and Government departments about what we can expect from new technologies and ways of living.
