You've been presented with £1 and now is your chance to grow that money and make yourself a millionaire. You'll meet people along the way who all have different approaches to money - you'll meet risk-takers, money-savers, people who are nifty with numbers and business pros. Some of the advice will be good. Some not so good. But financial advisor Emmanuel Asuquo will help you cut through the noise, give you the tools to make decisions that are right for you - and show how you could become a millionaire!
