The wealth transfer from baby boomers to their children is set to be the largest in history. This has created an unfair system—where parental wealth is the main determinant of success in life—says generational historian Dr Eliza Filby. She has written a book called Inheritocracy: It’s Time to Talk About the Bank of Mum and Dad. She travelled around the UK to explore who wins, who loses, and what we should be doing about it.

This is not financial advice. The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life.
