Redistributing wealth through education - why not join the ranks of the financially savvy today?
About us
Redistributing wealth and financial education more fairly in society. We are a social impact organisation who works with the most visionary people and organisations to help individuals gain financial freedom and companies to invest in financial wellness. We gift our profits to your workers and also to community impact projects. The Hug Academy has two aims: Tuition - to raise the level of financial literacy (something we believe should be taught in schools) so that everyone has the skills to better manage their personal finance and become wealthier if they wish to. Community impact - our excess company profits fund local community projects to increase social mobility and help to redistribute wealth where it's needed most. When we make society wealthier we provide families with more social mobility and generational opportunities whilst reducing inequality, crime and extremism. Wealthier societies stimulate more consumer confidence which helps businesses prosper and grow, and so a virtuous circle forms. At Hug we believe that everyone has a right to basic financial education so that they have the tools and resources to change their futures. With a little knowledge, a little capital and a little focus anyone can increase their wealth, and therefore their social mobility.

If your organisation shares our vision and wants a more engaged workforce, please get in touch.

This is interesting research on an AI focused company. However, ChatterHug's macro view is limited at the moment, so it's researching companies with a long term view, but the near term may be very un-predictable. In Hug Academy we teach about feathering investments and dollar cost averaging, which works well on quality stocks that can weather market turbulence.

As reported by BBC News the Bank of England has held interest rates at 5%, but are apparently "on the path down".

Another gem from Jon Thor Sigurleifsson. Thanks Jon. It's a really interesting question he poses. How easy do you find it to actually explain what money is? Now that cash money (coins and paper notes) is increasingly being phased out in favour of digital money it's feels like it's becoming more of an abstract concept than a tangible thing. What do you think? #Money #FinancialLiteracy #PersonalFinance #WealthManagement #OnlineCourses

What is money? I wanna get a little philosophical today because while the latest module I did in Hug Academy's financial literacy course could have inspired a number of different video topics (and may still do so) I thought I'd take just the name of the module for now. So what is money? It's a tool to simplify the evaluation and trading of goods and services or that would be my attempt at explaining it to someone with no concept of money. How would you explain it? #Money #FinancialLiteracy #OnlineCourses #Video #Captioned

Do you make a monthly budget for yourself? Over the weekend I continued my journey through Hug Academy's free trial and the monthly budget segment made me think about all the people I've known who would have needed this lesson so much earlier in life. Whether they would have taken it on board or not is a different story... But I've known so many people who have no problems budgeting in business, selling millions worth of products or software and then struggle to make their above-average salary last till the end of the month. Taking control of your finances can feel like an uphill battle when starting out but it's one worth fighting. #Finance #PersonalFinance #FinancialLiteracy
