I Will Teach You to Invest in 6 Weeks!
A personalised 1:1 programme designed to build total financial confidence, teach you long-term investing, and get you to work-optional years sooner.
Enrolment opening soon. Limited to 5 founding students to ensure maximum 1:1 support. Waitlist members receive priority notification and an exclusive founding-member discount.
You’ve built the foundation. Now what?
This programme is built specifically for people who have conquered the basics, but are frozen at the starting line of investing:
01.
You've mastered the basics
You comfortably spend less than you earn, and you have a solid emergency fund sitting safely in a high-interest savings account.
02.
You know you should be investing...
BUT every time you open an investment app, you're hit with endless choices, tax jargon, and the fear of making a costly mistake with your hard-earned money.
03.
You're tired of generic advice...
AND you want a clear, step-by-step framework tailored to your specific life goals, and with a real human in your corner to guide you through it 1:1.
The Transformation.
Investing isn't about staring at spreadsheets—it's about buying back your time, flexibility, and freedom.

Phase 1: Goals & Life Mapping
We start with your ideal life, not spreadsheets. We sit down 1:1 to map out what you actually want your money to do for you and establish a clear, simple starting baseline.
Phase 2: Portfolio Architecture
I will teach you the exact 3-step decision-making framework behind asset allocation, tax wrappers (ISAs & Pensions), and investment funds so that you understand what to choose, why you're choosing it, and how to manage it independently.


Phase 3: Future Mapping & Autopilot
We connect the strategy back to your real life. We crunch your numbers to calculate your exact "Savings Optional" date—the precise moment you no longer need to add another penny to your retirement—and set up automated systems so your wealth grows in the background while you build a life on your own schedule.
Pure Education. Zero Product Sales.
Traditional financial advice often relies on keeping you dependent so they can charge an ongoing percentage fee. The way I work is completely different:
Zero Conflicts of Interest
I don't manage your funds, sell financial products, or earn commissions.
100% Autonomy
I teach you the decision frameworks to make your own informed financial decisions for life.
Dedicated 1:1 Support
We work through your exact numbers, questions, and hesitations together, step-by-step.

Hi, I'm Ruth 👋
Founder of Scrimp & Spend | 6k+ on YouTube

I built my own six-figure investment portfolio from scratch by age 30 and share my journey on YouTube with over 6,000 subscribers at Scrimp & Spend.I'm currently completing my studies to become a qualified Financial Adviser (having passed my CII R01, R02 & R05 exams) to bring professional knowledge to my coaching.My core belief is simple: Investing isn't about hitting an arbitrary account balance. It's about giving yourself options, flexibility, and the freedom to spend time on what matters most.
