On 6 August 2026, I crossed a £200,000 investment portfolio.
Crazy!
I'm buzzing and certainly never thought this would happen when I started investing nearly 10 years ago.
In this one, I go through all of the numbers transparently, from what I've contributed, what the gains have been, the exact investments I make, exact accounts I use, and more.

š„ Get in touch - ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā click hereā ā ā - I've been investing for nearly 9 years - and I've invested every month for over 100 months in a row now.
Across that period I've lost money, made mistakes and learned what actually works.
In this one, I go through the most important lessons from the last 9 years.
Any questions let me know below - and I hope it helps you on your investment journey!

17:30 - It's easy to get rich slow - Most of my £196k investment portfolio (at the time of recording) is invested in global index funds and ETFs.
And right now they're all sitting at record highs - or 'all-time highs'.
As is the S&P 500, the Nasdaq, and many other broad market indices.
Which begs the obvious questions: is now a terrible time to invest? Should you just wait for a dip? Is this time different?
In this episode we go through:
What the data actually says about investing at all-time highs
Why 'this time might be different' (or might not be)
Practical steps to take, given the market is at a record high
And more

What they invest in
How much they charge in fees
What platforms they are available on
And the type of investment each of them is
