I'm back with another episode of the show, and we've got a bit to catch up on. Today I'm giving my thoughts on what the King's Speech means for your money, and how Labours plan might impact your hip pocket.

I also talk about how to calculate the real return of your investments, with nominal (non-inflation adjusted) numbers can be misleading.

Lastly, I explain why I think you should consider your home a lifestyle expense, NOT an asset.

I'm back after a few weeks break and in this episode I'm talking through how to choose a financial advisor.

I share 9 things to look for when choosing the right advisor for you, to make sure they're going to help you, and not just try sell you.

In this episode of The UK Money Podcast, I'm talking through what elections mean for your investments.

There's going to be a lot of mud-slinging and fear mongering in the coming months, particularly with a US election coming as well as the just-announced UK election.

I also discuss some more about the undervalued UK market, and how companies like Hargreaves Lansdown are becoming attractive takeover targets for private equity and foregin investors.

In today’s episode I’m talking about bonds. With investment markets starting to heat up a little, a lot of investors may be starting to think more about their asset allocation.

I want to dispel some of the myths around bonds, and question whether they’re worth investing in at all.

As well as that, I’m answering a listener question on what to do if you come into a lump sum of cash.

In this weeks' episode of The UK Money Podcast, I'm talking through the British ISA, and why I think it's actually a brilliant idea. I also touch on the new 99% mortgage from Yorkshire Building Society, and discuss whether you should consider a mortgage like this to get on the housing ladder.

In this episode of The UK Money Podcast, I'm explaining how the UK State Pension works. This is going to be especially important to understand with an election looming, and the State Pension always a hot issue! I also answer some listener questions about how to invest when you're running out of time to retirement, and how to invest for your kids.

Thanks so much to everyone who sent in questions this week, it’s great to be back and I am stoked with the response!

Hello listeners of The Hedge! I'm pumped up today and ready to bring you a fresh episode of the show. I'm trying to put a bit of perspective to the mess that we're in at the moment. It's not all doom and gloom and we have more options than we think!

A number of different topics on this weeks showing, including a great question from listener Nick. I discussed how to organise paper share certificates that your Mum or Grandad probably has lying around, as well as a rundown on the current state of crypto.

I also talk about how different investments often perform during a recession, and what that means for your portfolio.

I'm back on the mic after a couple of weeks off. Thanks for your patience and well wishes. On this week's show, I talk through what it means when we go into a recession and what it might mean for you and your investments.

Liquidity. It's a term I throw out all the time when talking about investments, but I don't think I've ever actually explained exactly what it means and why it's so important. So that's the plan for today! I talk through this often glossed over topic, and why it's something you should really be aware of in your own portfolio.

This week on the show I'm joined by Laura Davison, a property investor and business owner. I know I talk about property every now and then, but it's usually to say why it's a crap investment! With that in mind, I thought it would be a good idea to get the other side of the argument.

Answering some more listener questions this week! We're talking about focusing on growing income rather than cutting expenses. Yes the cost of living is biting everyone, but let's focus on ways to increase our earnings rather than cutting our expenditure.
