Financial education vs Financial advice with Obakeng Maoka

Easy Does It - A podcast by EasyEquities

We chat to a pro (a legit professional) in finance, Obakeng Maoka, who is an independent financial planner to break down the difference between financial advice and financial education, and why the distinction is important.
The conversation unpacks why South Africans desperately need more financial education and higher literacy in this regard.
Obakeng also tells us who is allowed to give financial advice and how to verify their credentials, the role influencers play in this space, and what financial planners actually do for clients. He even goes so far as to bust a few myths about financial planners!
