    Self-promoting? If you own a business and don't self-promote, YOU'RE the arse.

    Good on him making money, and since he's giving $10m of it to charity as well as got the buyer to sign up to their existing charter (no commercial bias), I don't think he loses credibility.

    Indeed.

    And he has good SEO positioning as well; if you google: money
    he's the first result.

    He was just on 5Live defending himself over the sale of MSE, says he will still be editor.

    Fair play to him, can't argue that he isn't passionate about what he does. Says he'll keep on going until there is financial education on the national curriculum so he gets my vote for that.

    To be fair I use this site quite a lot and find it pretty useful. Format is pretty ugly with all the different sized fonts and icons etc but been useful to me. I thought it would go for more based on the trend for popular sites being valued way over any income they generate (but that is for floatations as pointed out already I guess)

    He should have floated, it must be worth at least 50 billion.
