    I think one major aspect is living within your means. I appreciate it's really difficult at the moment with costs of every day life. From all the podcasts and books I've read on money over the years, a key theme I see is many rich folks completely cut out "wants" at the beginning. I see so many people who have taken on loans and debt who cannot pay it back quickly and they are stuck with it for potentially decades. I read somewhere in a paper that car loans account over a quarter of the average full time worker's salary for many under 30s. It highlights this desire to buy the newest, shiniest thing. New phone, new car, new clothes etc.
    I'm not exactly stating this will make you a millionaire. Cutting back on wants, not needs, will always give you more security financially.

    Because he works for the DET, it'll be a Peugeot. Bland, loads of horrible adverts and it never works properly.

    SSD got a reaction from David Graham Brown in Post office scandal   
    What gripes me about this awful scandal is people at the top of the tree really think chucking financial compensation at the victims is the way to resolve the problem. Some of the folks affected are mentally ruined or even worse have ended their own lives over this disgusting farce. But here's a few quid to say sorry. Absolutely horrible. 
    This isn't specifically political, it's been happening for decades. Top brass on all sides are terrible at procurement, public money thrown down the bottomless pit. As per usual, they always pick the cheapest option and it doesn't matter about quality of the product. Happens in all sectors. Even in my workplace, once a contract runs out they'll always pick the lowest bidder and then chuck loads of cash at the problem for the next 5 years once it all falls to piece.
    The difference here is the all parties involved refused to be accountable at it has destroyed lives. These folks were trusted members of local communities ruined by technology which they did not choose and their employer lying about the problems. People within the Post Office should go to prison for blatantly lying to government and their employees but of course that won't happen.
