The Naked Couple Podcast

I'm back!!! Having been forced to take some time off with Covid I am now back and ready to record more episodes. 
In this episode I talk about how insignificant I really am, how I feel stronger again and how I want to move forward with my plans. 

Yes I feel awful, I have no energy, I'm tired and stressed but is Covid that bad we have to lockdown everyone?
We keep locking down expecting different results, but the fact is the lockdown isn't working. 

The world is going down the toilet and the liklehood of a business surviving is grim. If you currently have a job or are self employed you are gambling on having one income. 
This is not a good place to be. 
When companies start to make mass redundancies and business fails, how are you going to survive?

My advice is to start something on the side that can bring in a second income. Or study something that wil make you valuable to your employer. 
Being ahead of the game means taking advantage of every little thing you can.

Don't sit around waiting for things to come back. Make sure you educate yourself and protect your future. 

When you look at investing for the future you need to know where you are financially. This week I spent some time working out how much money I have to spend every month. 

The purpose of the excercise is to see if my income is more than my expenses. When you know the figures you can work out a way forward. 

If you have more expenses than income you know where you can start to make cuts and how much more you need to earn. 
If you are lucky to have more income and a surplus you know how much you can start investing right away. 

When starting to invest you need to understand your enemies. The financial markets are throught with dangers. Trusting the wrong people can lead to big losses. 
I am just starting out on my investing journey and my first lesson is to get an understanding of the institutions and products available.

In this episode I give a basic overview of what is out there and why you need to learn how to manage your own money.

After all no-one should be more interested in your money than you. Now is a great time to learn about investing. There are so many new and excisting ways to invest for the future. 

I am at the stage of my life where I need to start building wealthy for my retirement. Over the next 7 weeks I will be studying an investment course and talking about what I am learning. 
In this episode I talk about where I am on the finnacial ladder and what the rungs of tha ladder are.

I feel this is the right time in my life to start learning about investing for the future, Over the next 7 weeks I will be studying everyday and reporting what I am learning. 
Keep following for more investment advice and lesson on how to build a great financial future. 

In this episode I talk about the proposal and how it wasn't perfect, In my mind I had a vision of how things would go but the reality was not quite how I imagined.
In the past this would have bothered me or I would have quit due to it not being perfect.

Now days I jump in and worry about getting things perfect later. Better to start something that doesn't quite go to plan then start nothing at all. 

At the time of recording it is the 5th January 2021. It's the last day of the 12 days of Christmas.

Every day since Christmas day I have sent my girlfriend a card with a message of what our relationship means to me. The card is accompanied with a gift that resembeles the message in the card.

Today is the last day and the most important one. In this episode I tell you why it is so important to me and why I have kept this quiet until now. 

I feel like crap today, really not well. Obviously during these stange times you may worry you have Covid. But should you get tested? or is testing a scam?
In this episode I talk about why I feel getting tested could be the wrong thing to do and why I possibly won't.

But please let me know your thoughts. If you think not getting tested is selfish let me know your reasons. I'm happy to admit if I am wrong and change my mind.

Yesterday I hit a wall. I was so tired and down, christmas and the New Year had caught u with me and I took a day off to recover. 
What I noticed was the biggest positive impact on my day was No Phone and No Social Media.
I switched Off!!!

I had no distractions, I focussed on muyself and what was going on around me. I relaxed and I had fun.

From now on I will be limiting my phone time. I will be putting it away and concerntrating on what is happening around me. 

The mobile phone is useful but can also demand your attention. Try putting it away, leaving it upstairs so you don't want to keep checking it.

I gurantee this one trick will help you be more relaxed and productive.
