In this week's podcast I talk about S&P500; and if it's a good idea or not to go All-In. Should you bet all your investment or pension assets on the good 'ol S&P500;? Or would you be considered 'bananas' to do so?!? As with a lot of my podcasts, this is inspired by a recent conversation. Conversations that I love to have and to explore with clients. Could one say that a financial advisor is not doing right by their clients if they are NOT advising all their clients to go all-in on S&P500; or the Nasdaq??! It's important to make an informed decision. I hope this helps!

In this week's podcast, I take another look at Lifestyle and Default Investment strategies for pension funds in Ireland. Something I've discussed before. For the past 7 years, I have been making the case for avoiding Lifestyling for most investors (those that can handle volatility). And it's been a lonely place! While I had nothing but positive feedback from investors regarding these pieces - there was been little if any coverage of it from anyone else. Was I mad, or missing something? It appears not. I hope it helps.

In this week's podcast, I talk about Larry Fink, Warren Buffet, and my granny's kitchen. Larry Fink is renowned for his role as the CEO of BlackRock, one of the world's largest investment management firms. Much like Warren Buffett, Fink has earned a reputation as a visionary in the world of finance, leveraging his expertise to advocate for long-term investment strategies and the power of capital markets to drive economic growth.  While it might be considered by some as a 'poor cousin' of the Berskshire Hathaway annual shareholder meeting, Fink publishes an annual letter that gets little coverage but does contain some interesting ideas and reflections on markets, investing and life. Hope you find it interesting.

In this week's podcast, I talk about the Wealth of Health.  Something slightly off-topic this week, and something far more concise that usual. I hope it helps you.  A definition of wealth is 'a plentiful supply of a particular desirable thing'.  Money is a desirable thing - and we put a lot of focus here on accumulating and protecting that in an efficient, stress-free and proven way. What else is desirable to most of us? I hope it helps.

In this week's podcast I take a look at Fisher Investments Ireland. Fisher Investments have been around the USA a long time apparently, and recently set-up shop in Ireland, but are Fisher Investments Ireland any good, I hear some ask? Are they a fish out of water, or are they a saviour landed on our shores! Lets find out! I hope it helps.

 One of my favourite podcasts is The Compound & Friends featuring hosts Josh Brown and Michael Batnick of 'Ritholtz Wealth' in the US. They are irreverent, funny, informative and between them and their varied guests (they call them 'friends'!) share some great insights and information.   In recent weeks they have touched on a wide variety of topics, but two in particular caught my attention most, and I felt might be worth sharing with you in this weeks' podcast. I hope it helps.
