    ARCHIVE: The one thing you need to invest in (to beat 95% of professional investors) - PensionCraft's Ramin Nakisa

    For Christmas we've gone into the archive to dig out one of our favourite episodes. Everyone talks about diversification, but how diverse do you really need to be? Can you just invest in one fund? Ramin Nakisa is personal finance YouTube royalty in the UK. He walks us through some of the major assets classes and their pros and cons - but also why one investment might just be enough for you to beat most professional investors, forever. This episode was recorded in July 2023 so some information may have changed since then.  🤝 Want help from a financial advisor?

    The interest rate crisis has just begun - Financial historian Edward Chancellor

    Edward Chancellor is a financial historian, journalist and investment strategist. In 2008 central bankers brought interest rates to their lowest level in five thousand years. Unaffordable housing, the collapse of productivity, rising inequality are just some of the things Chancellor says are results of those decisions and he argues the worst could be yet to come.
