Episode 78 - Why are so many people in the UK scared of investing? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why are so many people in the UK still scared of investing? After one of my recent social media posts went viral, I was flooded with comments saying investing was gambling, that I wanted people to lose their money, and that keeping cash in the bank was the safer option. To me that reaction says a lot about how investing is still viewed in the UK. In this episode of Beyond the Market, I look at why millions of people are comfortable saving money but never make the step into investing, despite hav
Episode 77 - What £13,000 a year tells you about how much you really need invested for retirement. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The UK State Pension is going to be worth more than £13,000 a year for the first time. This has made quite a lot of noise this week, with people talking about pensioners paying tax or intergenerational fairness. But I think that actually misses the bigger point. This is a moment to think about investing and how much you'd need invested to comfortably withdraw £13,000, as that will shock you.

Read excerpt
When you see a billionaire investing millions into a start-up, cryptocurrency, property or the next big technology, it is easy to assume they know something you don’t.

I explain why t
Episode 75 - A Boring Investment Portfolio Is a Feature, Not a Bug (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Investing is boring. And that kind of the point. In this week's episode of Beyond the Market, I explain why a boring investment portfolio isn't something you need to fix and why constantly searching for something more exciting can actually make it harder to build long-term wealth. I look at why so many people associate investing with trading, stock picking and constantly watching markets, and how that expectation can push investors towards unnecessary risk. I also share a real example from the C
Episode 74 - What is really stopping you from investing? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why haven’t you started investing yet? For most people, it isn’t because they don’t understand that investing can help them build long-term wealth. Instead, there are a handful of barriers that keep them waiting for the “right” moment. In this episode of Beyond the Market, I break down four of the biggest reasons people put off investing, the fear of losing money, feeling like they don’t know enough, believing they don’t have enough money to start, and convincing themselves they’ll invest later.
