It wasn't a good game. But it was just... It was Stokes. I didn't even like the team. But it was... I was so... It goes back to what I said earlier. The thing that invalidates you when you're younger is the thing you end up seeking validation from when you're older. So... The dopamine hit I could have got from winning would have filled some kind of hole in my insecurities.
I had destroyed my credit rating by the time that I figured out what it was. No one told me what a credit score was. And I had four credit cards that I'd been given because when you're a student, they just want to give you these cards. I went out, I spent the money. And then someone explained to me that you have to pay it back.

I had no money. And because I then dropped out of university, my parents didn't want to speak to me because that's complicated. And I was the only child in my family that left university. So I'm hundreds of miles away from home. I have managed to achieve these two CCJs, which is a county court judgment where the court comes for you because you've not paid any debts back.

I've dropped out of university. I'm shoplifting food to feed myself at this point. I can't call my parents and ask them for anything, not that they would be able to help me in that situation anyway. And I've destroyed this credit rating that apparently is really important and that nobody told me was critical. And that's the situation I found myself in at 18, 19 years old.

So interesting. I wish all parents did that. Because I was thinking about what's actually going on there. And what he did is he pulled back the curtain on how the system works. He gave you certainty through information on how this thing called money operates. The opposite approach is what I experienced, which is... Total uncertainty. And there's nothing humans hate more than uncertainty.

Money was this person in my life that was stood behind the curtain wreaking havoc. I didn't know who he was or who she was or what she was doing, but I could see the consequences of her. And I didn't have a relationship with her.

Your dad pulled back the curtain and gave you a direct relationship with money as if you think of it like a person and showed you how they operate, how they think and what they do. And that kills the uncertainty so you can be at peace with this thing. Whereas I didn't know. I could just see the downstream consequences in my everyday life. I could see the argument. I could see the stress.

There's a few things that sprung to mind when you asked the question. The first is at 18 years old, when I dropped out of university, my friend had given me this diary. And I'm alone in this room in a place called Moss Side slash Rush Home in Manchester. And I write in the first page of my diary, my goals before I'm 25 years old. Number one. I'm going to buy a Range Rover Sport, right?
