SimpleMoney.live was built by a real person, for real people — no jargon, no hidden agenda, just honest and practical UK personal finance.
SimpleMoney.live is a UK personal finance website founded by Christian Pearson, based in Chester, England. The site was built with one goal in mind — to make personal finance genuinely accessible to everyday British people, regardless of their financial background or experience.
We are not a bank, a financial adviser, or a faceless corporate website. We are an independent resource run by someone who has been in your shoes — trying to make sense of savings rates, mortgages, ISAs, and all the other financial decisions that life throws at you.
Christian Pearson is an engineer by profession and a children's book writer by passion — and like many people juggling a busy life, he found that most financial advice online was either bewilderingly complicated, stuffed full of jargon, or aimed at people who already had a solid grasp of money.
"I started SimpleMoney.live because I realised that most financial advice online is either overly complicated, full of jargon, or aimed at people who already understand money. I wanted to create a simple, easy-to-follow resource that helps everyday people improve their finances, make smarter money decisions, and discover practical ways to earn and save more — without feeling overwhelmed."
— Christian Pearson, Founder, Chester, England
With years of personal experience researching budgeting, savings, and practical ways to create additional income streams, Christian has helped friends and family save money, compare better deals, improve their budgeting habits, and find simple ways to make their money go further. SimpleMoney.live is the natural extension of that — bringing the same plain-English guidance to a much wider audience.
