Most founders spend years obsessing over revenue, growth and valuation. But very few talk honestly about what happens after the money arrives. This show is about what founders actually did with their money – what they got wrong, what they wish they’d done earlier and how their relationship with wealth changed once it became real.
Because building wealth is one game. Learning how to live with it is another entirely.

From tech CEO to insurance salesman | Ed Leon Klinger | Enough episode 5
Ed Leon Klinger was meant to start at Blackstone. One week before he did, he turned it down to start Flock.
Ten years later – to the day – the company he built had been sold to Admiral for $109 million.
This isn’t the neat founder story. It’s £1,000-a-month founder salaries, drone insurance, two pivots, late nights wondering if the company would survive, a car crash, a baby, a complex sale process and a very deliberate attempt to create more luck than anyone else.
In this episode, Nick sits down with Ed to talk about the kind of ambition Britain still finds a bit embarrassing, what Silicon Valley teaches you about thinking bigger, why selling a business is harder than building one and why AI might make the next few years feel unrecognisable.
There’s advice here for founders. But really, it’s for anyone trying to work out whether they’re thinking boldly enough about the life, business or future they actually want.

Life before spreadsheets | Robin Powell & Jonathan Hollow | Enough episode 4
Before you work out how much money you need, have you worked out what you actually want your life to look like?
In this episode of Enough, Prosper CEO Nick Perrett sits down with Robin Powell and Jonathan Hollow, authors of How to Fund the Life You Want, to try to answer that deceptively simple question.
Robin, an award-winning journalist and campaigner for better investor education, and Jonathan, a former Money and Pensions Service leader now enjoying his own retirement, make the case for putting life before spreadsheets.
They unpack why so many people start with the wrong number, why fear is useful information but terrible instruction and why the most important financial conversation might be the one you’re avoiding.
It’s a timely discussion about purpose, pensions, AI, long-term care, couples who don’t talk about money, and the ordinary Tuesday afternoon test for working out what “enough” really means.

Welsh, ambitious & nowhere near finished | Dafydd Jones & Damon Chapple | Enough episode 3
In this episode of Enough, Nick and Hattie head to the inaugural Fintech Wales Festival to meet two founders who've made it their mission to open doors that were never meant for them.
Dave Jones has spent his career dismantling barriers to access, most recently bringing venture capital investment to anyone with $10 and an appetite for the next SpaceX. Damon Chapple, co-CEO of Synovate, has just closed a landmark £210 million facility backed by Germany's DZ Bank – and lived to sleep well through it.
Together, they unpack what drives founders who grew up with very little, why purpose and profit aren't the trade-off most people think they are and whether there's ever a point where building something feels like enough.

What's so good about Prosper anyway? | Nick Perrett & Ricky Knox | Enough episode 2
In this episode of Enough, we put Ricky and Nick, the founders of Prosper, under the spotlight.
How is Prosper different from any other cash and investment platform? Why was it voted best investment platform 2026 by Financial Interest? And how do we know it’s the best place to put your savings and investments to guarantee More for You into the future?
Nick and Ricky share the three magic reasons that make Prosper the only generous player in a greedy category. And, they get into why spending marketing budgets on Google and Facebook is really a tax on your own customers, and why Prosper would rather pay that money back to you instead.
We hope this episode clears up what Prosper can do to make more for you with your money, how it does it, and why you shouldn’t waste anymore time to take advantage of the power of compounding on zero fees.

Risk, debt & the choices that define you as a founder | Ricky Knox | Enough episode 1
In the opening episode of Enough, Prosper CEO Nick Perrett turns the tables on his own co-founder: Ricky Knox, the entrepreneur behind Tandem Bank and several successful exits, sits in the hot seat to reflect on the financial decisions he's proud of, the ones he quietly regrets, and the moment he realised whether "enough" was actually enough.
It's a conversation about purpose, choices, risk appetite and what money is really for once you've already made it. There are some motorbikes and big parties thrown in for good measure too.
If you've built something, sold something, or are quietly wondering what you'd do if you did – this one's for you.

[…] strategies won't do is allow you to invest in defense allow you to invest in gambling companies and so on do you but there's an extra layer for you guys on top of that right or do you actually like would you as a muslim ever buy an esg product for example Or do you think there's enough difference there? I think they're different. And when you talk about the main Islamic funds out there, typically done by HSBC, they even differ from the other main provider of Islamic funds out there, BlackRock, the iShares funds, because HSBC add an ESG filter onto the funds. In my opinion, just because something Islamic is Sharia compliant doesn't make it score highly on ESG metrics. […]
