Martin Lewis rants about need for financial education

Personal finance expert Martin Lewis told 5 live Daily鈥檚 Adrian Chiles that financial education 鈥渋s crucially important for educating our young people on how to live in this modern, competitive economy鈥.

Martin argues that adding better lessons in finance to the curriculum 鈥渆nables you to look after yourself鈥 and is a 鈥渞eal life-skill.鈥

In a passionate rant, Martin called for student loans to no longer be called student loans, because 鈥渢hey are not loans; they are a graduate contribution proportionate to what you earn鈥 believing the term 鈥渘ormalises debt.鈥
