0:00.0	This season of Desert Island Dishes is brought to you in partnership with Lloyd's Bank and
0:05.3	their smart start bank account for 11 to 15 year olds. When I was growing up, my parents would
0:11.8	always tell us that money didn't grow on trees and if you look after the pennies, the pounds will
0:17.5	look after themselves. But to be honest, I never really understood what these old
0:22.7	sayings meant or what they were trying to teach me. And I think like with lots of life skills,
0:29.0	these things are just so much easier to learn from a young age. And this is definitely something
0:34.2	I think about now with my own children. And I can see it in my niece
0:38.0	because since she got her Lloyd's Bank Smart Start account, she has become somewhat of a
0:44.1	saving superstar. She's already learning how to manage her money and learning these habits
0:50.6	which are going to make her adult life so much easier. She's also so excited about
0:55.6	using it too, which is brilliant. They get their own card, they get a savings account and a
1:01.6	spending account. It's just such a good idea and something that you can do as a parent that's
1:07.0	going to help them flourish in the future. It's so clever. It's so good for their confidence.
1:12.8	And it's just something that I wish genuinely had been around when I was that age. I think as parents,
1:18.4	we all know we have a lot of plates in the air. And even with the best intentions, we just don't
1:24.8	have the time to teach our children everything that we'd like to. And sometimes
1:29.8	that means important conversations get rushed or brushed over. So I really am excited to be
1:36.1	working with Lloyds on this campaign because it's all focused on building financial confidence
1:41.0	in children. To be eligible, parents and guardians need to have an existing
1:46.1	club Lloyd's current account and be registered for internet banking. To find out more, head to
1:51.8	Lloyd'sbank.com forward slash smart start. Thank you very much to Lloyd's Bank.
2:01.7	Hi, I'm Margie Nomura and welcome to the Desert Island Dishes podcast.
