Episode 440 - On this week's episode I carry out the annual review of my winter investment portfolio, which uses an investment strategy aimed at capitalising on a seasonal market trend. I reveal how the portfolio has outperformed major stock market indices despite being in cash 50% of the time. Then we discuss the 'pension pot for life' proposal announced by the government, exploring what is it and how it might work. Finally, Andy examines the energy costs associated with Christmas celebrations. From cooking the turkey to lighting up your Christmas tree, we break down the costs. We also reveal how much higher your energy bill will be if you are hosting this year.
