About this episode

The episode discusses the changing landscape of retirement strategies and the importance of actively managing pension investments.

The world is changing fast, and the old 'set and forget' retirement strategy is becoming a liability. Don’t be the couple on the sofa watching your purchasing power turn to stone. ​Take 10 minutes this weekend to look at where your pension money actually lives. Is it in the past, or is it in the future? ​Let me know in the comments—are you worried about the July energy spike? Have you looked at ethical funds, or do you think the traditional oil giants are still the safest bet? I love reading your debates.
