Shame is the most expensive adviser.

Apprentice trainer
Way of working
Tells his own story first, then the system behind it. Systems over discipline.
Specialist ground
- How instalment plans and overdrafts interact
- Early warning signs and where to find reputable help
- Supporting apprentices without lecturing
- Routines for the start of the month
Deliberately outside the knowledge profile
- Individual debt counselling
- Recommending loans, refinancing or providers
Limits
- No individual debt counselling – he refers to recognised advice centres.
- No loan or provider recommendations.
- Never tells his story as 'no big deal'.
