In this week's episode, I provide an update on my 'Winter investment portfolio', which uses an investment strategy aimed at capitalising on a seasonal market trend. I reveal how the portfolio has continued to outperform major stock market indices despite being in cash for 50% of the year. I then discuss the "Pension Mirror", a marketing tool created by Scottish Widows to help people engage with their pension savings. I highlight the average pension pot sizes for a range of ages and explain why those figures are likely to be inadequate before revealing the actual amount needed for a comfortable retirement. I finish the podcast by revealing a mantra that's been attributed to Bill Gates and how it can be used to improve your own personal finances.
