Learn To Love Your Payslip

Every employee gets a payslip… but hardly anyone ever actually reads them. That’s a great shame, because they’re packed with lots of essential information that can help you get A Little Bit Richer.   From understanding tax codes to deciphering deductions, this week our host Kia Commodore digs into the fine print of your payslip with Asesh Sarkar. He’s the CEO and co-founder of Salary Finance and MyBnk’s Chair of Trustees. What’s the difference between your gross and net salary? What is PAYE? And why is keeping track of all those numbers so important? Asesh explains why there’s more to your payslip than you might expect. Plus, he gives his top payday budgeting tips, helping you cover the essentials, save enough for tomorrow, and hopefully have enough left over to treat yourself too. Kia and her guests share their own personal thoughts and opinions in this podcast. These might be different from Legal & General’s take on things. They give financial guidance for a UK audience that’s relevant at the time of recording. It’s general best practice, not the kind of personalised advice you’d get from a financial adviser.
