4.4 out of 5 stars from 630 ratings
  • A good listen

    Good discussions with knowledgeable guests. Kalpana’s episodes feel less formal and are perhaps better suited to newer investors and younger people. I particularly enjoy some of the more in-depth episodes with experts in more particular areas. Sometimes you need 45 minutes to an hour to discuss topics and it’s nice to have a platform where that’s being done. Thank you, from a long time MW reader.

    I have listened to your podcast since it started. Whilst very informative it is far too long for my attention span.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How to get better at investing – from a psychologist
Q: How can someone overcome fear and begin investing without overwhelming risk?
Start with a sensible mix aligned to goals (e.g., a controlled allocation to stocks, bonds, and cash), use automatic plans like target-date funds, and focus on consistent contributions rather than chasing high-risk 'lottery' bets.
How to get better at investing – from a psychologist
Q: What do people really need to understand to take action on investing?
They need to recognize that investing is about long-term goals, manage emotional responses, and start with a small, sustainable allocation rather than all-in bets; gradual exposure and consistent saving help build confidence and reduce fear.
Why former Team GB boxer Delicious Orie has traded his gloves for the world of finance
Q: So your advice to your younger self as an investor?
Begin investing earlier and start with small, regular contributions; use simple vehicles like a Junior ISA to build a habit that compounds over time.
Jeremy Grantham: How to invest like a stock market legend
Q: So you can see the bubbles; why did so many institutions fail to act when the signs were clear, and how did that shape your approach?
The episode explains that institutional incentives, career risk, marketing pressures, and the desire to stay with the flow led committees to ignore warning signs; this reinforced the importance of independent risk assessment and timely exits, which Gratham illustrates with his own experience of exiting positions before crashes.
Are you prepared for upcoming inheritance tax changes?
Q: Hi, Lisa. What is IHT or inheritance tax? Tell me how it works.
IHT is a 40% tax on the value of an estate above its allowances, with the potential to be influenced by pensions and ways the estate can be reduced through planning, gifting, and strategic use of allowances. Pensions move into the estate after April 2027, which can create a more complex tax picture and affect how beneficiaries pay taxes when they access funds.
