MoneyWeek videos are designed to help you become a better investor, and to give you a better understanding of the markets. They’re aimed at both beginners and more experienced investors.

In all our videos we explain things in an easy-to-understand way. Some videos are about important ideas and concepts. Others are about investment stories and themes in the news. The emphasis is on clarity and brevity. We don’t want to waste your time with a 20-minute video that could easily be so much shorter.

    Feeling a lot better about my upcoming bookkeeping and accounting courses now that I know you are on the internet.

    If only I came across you before, my lecturer made this 20times more complicated than it had to be. I lost sleep trying to remember what element belongs to each statement. Your 13minute video is like I found enlightenment

    Good follow up videos in this series are "what is profit" and "why costs matter" - those give a guided tour of the profit and loss account at an introductory level. Tim.

    And here I thought accountants where boring people but Tim goes against the grain. He makes accounting interesting and he's a bit of eye candy for us ladies!

    Mr Bennett, I'll probably fail a basic introductory accounting exam in two days, but I have a slight, slight chance of not failing because of your excellent teaching. Thank you very much. If I pass, I owe it all to you.
