About this channel

On a mission to improve the financial savviness of the UK Armed Forces. In partnership with @serveandprotect Having served in the British Army for the last 12 years, I have seen countless serving personnel throw money mindlessly away because they do not have a basic understanding of personal finance. I hope to change this with the content I produce here on, The Savvy Squaddie. Money tactics for military minds. Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this video are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of the British Army or the Ministry of Defence. I am not a trained financial advisor and what I say is NOT financial advice. They are my own thoughts and opinions on the matter. You should do your own research and come to your own conclusions before starting to invest your money.
