#42 Interview with Jennifer Kempson of the Mamafurfur Blog & Youtube channel. Tell us a bit about yourself and how you got interested in personal finance and helping others through your blog and YouTube channel?   Do you identify with the FIRE movement?   What is your investment strategy? Allocations?    What are your thoughts on stocks and share ISAs vs Pensions?   How important do you think having a budget is?   What is your idea of a good emergency fund?   You've done some videos on mortgages, your thoughts on overpaying vs paying the typical minimum monthly amount and investing on the side?   Do you have any interest in owning rental properties?    What are your thoughts on the student debt crisis globally?   Why do you think we are not taught much about personal finance at school? Do you think it's important for parents to teach their children about money?   I have an unreal interest in reading up about personal finance and investing and i'm sure you do as well but would you say many people we know in are every day lives may be less interested in finances. For example people i meet at work have no interest in their pension or even what it's invested in. Any thoughts?   I note you are a big fan of Vanguard like me. How did you first find out about this company?   Do you have any favourite books? Can be finance books or any type.   With the message that you're spreading and the help your giving others.
