We're looking for a trainee financial planner in our London office.
Ideally someone who has got paraplanning experience and is looking to move into a regulated role.
Real financial planning powered by no BS index-based portfolios.

One of the most significant moments from the Trump Davos speech was when he said the quiet part out loud
You cannot lower housing costs for young people without destroying millions in wealth for boomers
"Every time you make it more affordable for somebody to own a house cheaply, you are actually hurting the value of those houses. I don't want to do anything to hurt the value of their house.
If I wanted to crush the housing market, I could do that so fast that people could buy houses. But you would destroy people who already have houses."
Our politicians are sacrificing people in their 20s and 30s for the prosperity of boomers
Let that sink in

obvious point re. the council tax surcharges - the current situation where the most expensive properties pay a pathetic % in tax is not sustainable
Seeing my all time favourite driver in a Ferrari, then unexpectedly meeting my all time favourite content creator @wendoverpro on the same day? Monza, baby!
Yep. Just in time education/resources is far more effective imo.
Expecting a 16 year old to learn about mortgage rates and tax relief would feel as engaging as long division or simultaneous equations.
Hot take: Personal finance education is overrated.
You can teach someone about compound interest, budgeting, and investing, but it won't make much of a difference if they're only making $35,000 a year.
Their problem isn't their knowledge. It's their income.
Like how is this anything other than pure market manipulation? Literally three hours ago:

Napoleon's definiton of a military genius was "The man who can do the average thing when everyone else around him is losing his mind."
Same in investing.

The stock market in the long-term:
Earnings, innovation and cash flows
The stock market in the short-term:
Vibes, narratives and conflicting emotions
I think it's finally time to accept fate and transfer properly to 🔵 for personal & 🖇️ for "professional".
This place is a morgue now.
This is possibly, probably, even dumber than GameStop now.
WOW.
Donald Trump’s memecoin, $TRUMP, DOUBLED overnight and is currently trading up more than +28,000% in 36 HOURS.
The coin is now up more than the S&P 500 has returned since 1971, or 54 YEARS of returns.
Why did it double overnight? Let us explain.
