In view of the £87 million trousered by Martin Lewis for his website, how filthy rich could admin be if he sold up?

nice to see he's made a pretty penny having been responsible, along with the rest of the financial press, for pushing people to chase fractional differences in interest rates and hence promoting icelandic banks.

Pete, there is NOTHING independent about Martin Lewis's website. He has been receiving kickbacks from the products he recommends for years. That's exactly how he made his money. OK, so he reviews products and recommends them as he sees fit, but if you get a commission, you cannot claim to be independent.
I thought more people realised this, but clearly not.

Not all the financial press has done that, Doc. I have always written if it looks too good to be true, it almost certainly is.

One thing that gives me sleepless nights is annuities being available on comparison sites. People may think they can buy general insurance, but often get the cover wrong. The worst that happens is that is a mismatch in cover for a year. Annuities are a one time deal and most people buy the wrong product based on price, not what it offers.

And so you know it isn't truly independent, though it pretends to be.

Fair play, though, that's a lot of money.

Would you have turned it down? I know I wouldn't.

I'm not criticising him selling off his business. Just pointing out he's not as squeaky clean as he is often portrayed on TV (which has done a great job of marketing his site for nothing).
