Martin Lewis is incapable of giving advice on anything but saving £1.50 ona cup of tea or pennies on your monthly mobile contract. He just regurgatates articles from the internet. Anyway, the best way to earn extra money is stop watching Martin The Money Expert Lewis, hahahaha and go to work earlier and that’ll sort that problem out.

Martin Lewis, does a service for the UK consumer because he does find cheap deals. Unfortunately he also fills his pockets. The site gets huge hits per month in the region of 10 million with his monthly email being sent to 6 million. MSE is an AFFILLIATE SITE with Saving Information. Mr Lewis is a millionaire many times over. Lets see him denie that maybe not in the bank but MSE site is cash cow. So he can say all he likes but he could make this site a none profit one and invest in other projects to help others. But Hey!! Would you??

For some twenty years I’ve had the misfortune to guided by so called qualified financial experts who have sat in front of me and simply lied. The majority of them are as clueless as the next guy. The big difference between them and I is I either make or lose my money through my efforts whereas IFA’s will always make money regardless of how bad their advice is.

I too was banned from the forum. I posted some good voucher codes in the forum,which apparently you’re allowed to do, unless they dont get the money from them!

“So is Lewis a multi millionaire or not?”

We wont know because he has declared himself an unlimited company to avoid appearing on the Sunday Times Rich list …

…I too am banned for life from the moneysaving expert forums (I complained about his articles on private parking) for “advertising” but he didn’t threaten to ring my mum.

Slightly ironic a Money Saving Expert trying to conceal their wealth …but there you go.

That said I do think his site is useful.

Sounds like Lewis has upset a lot financial advisors, estate agents and bankers out there.

A bunch of whinging faggots I reckon.

So is Lewis a multi millionaire or not?

2 ways you can look at it either he’s good at finance or he’s a chancer that’s hit lucky.
If he is a millionaire kind of suggests the first option to me though.

I appreciate both sides of the debate here. Martin Lewis is in it for himself and his own financial gain, but at the same time his website has prompted plenty of people to wise up to their financial situations.

The subject of personal finance is poorly understood by your average person in the street. At least the site aims to give people a better understanding of finance which at the same time makes Martin Lewis very wealthy.

A win/win situation?

What a bunch of Whingers! Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth!
I get a FREE MSE email every week and have received a lot of good advice, which has saved me a lot of money. Thanks Martin!

In reply to “dl” from novemeber, I feel I should point to a couple of flaws in you arguement:
Neither martin lewis nor moneysavingexpert.com are registered with or accredited by the FSA. Check with the FSA themselves if you don’t believe me.
The fact that he provides finacial advice on a profit making basis means he must be accredited as such or he risks serious legal action. Those who lost money in Icelandic banks are well within their rights to sue martin lewis if they can show their descision was influenced by him or information published on his site.
Again, I will reitterate, he is not qualified, he does not know what he is talking about.
