Financial planners' real value isn't measured in basis points — it's measured in transformed lives. These five stories prove it 👇 @Timeline_Tech #FinancialAdvice #FinancialPlanning shorturl.at/EmJnx

Tim Maurer on investor control You cannot control market outcomes, but you can control how you respond. #BehaviouralFinance #SmartInvesting

Peter Bernstein on hedging risk Protection always comes with trade-offs. The perfect hedge does not exist. #MarketRisk #FinancialEducation

Jonathan Clements on outperformance Different results require different decisions. That is easy to say and hard to do. #SmartInvesting #LongTermThinking

Charles Ellis on investor behaviour Investment performance matters, but investor behaviour often matters more. #InvestorDiscipline #SmartInvesting

Probability theory began at the gaming table. Girolamo Cardano — Renaissance physician, mathematician and gambler — wanted to understand dice. His insight was simple but profound: chance has structure. You can count the outcomes. You can calculate the odds. And once you do, you realise something uncomfortable: most gamblers lose not because they are unlucky, but because the odds are against them. Five centuries later, investors face a similar problem. Stock picking. Market timing. Expensive active funds. Success is possible. But the costs are high, the competition is fierce, and the winners are hard to identify in advance. The investment industry is happy for the game to continue. Every trade, every fund switch, every expensive product generates revenue. Cardano’s lesson still matters: understand the odds — then stop playing games that are stacked against you.

Jason Zweig on trust in investing The best investors don’t just act. They question, check and verify. #SmartInvesting #FinancialDiscipline

.@benjaminfelix told Steven Bartlett's audience of millions what evidence-based investors have known for decades. Not yet familiar with EBI? This particular episode of #DiaryofaCEO is well worth your time. My take on the highlights for @IFAdotcom ➡️ shorturl.at/EO7iV

When your goals are clear, short-term market moves matter less. #LongTermThinking #SmartInvesting

Published today: the second edition of How to Fund the Life You Want, the award-winning book I co-authored with Jonathan Hollow. The most common response to the first edition wasn't 'I learned something.' It was 'I finally did something about it.' That's what we designed it for. The book comes with a downloadable workbook that makes you apply every chapter to your own life.. because understanding your finances and actually sorting them out are two very different things.

The feeling of potential reward often drives behaviour more than the outcome itself. #InvestorPsychology #BehaviouralFinance

Benchmark design can influence perceived performance more than investors realise. #InstitutionalInvesting #Benchmarks

Very few, if any, fund managers properly beat the market in the long run. That's not opinion.. It's what decades of research consistently show. So why are millions still paying them to try? Because the investment industry profits from your confusion. The fully updated second edition of How to Fund the Life You Want is out on Thursday. @jphollow and I wrote it to close the knowledge gap the industry has no interest in closing.

Frequent trading increases costs and reduces long-term returns. #InvestmentCosts #LongTermWealth

Investors worry about #Inflation .. The industry knows it, and sells them a solution. The problem? Most assets sold as inflation hedges only protect against about 9% of your cost of living. New research finds that equities, gold, property funds and commodities all hedge ENERGY inflation. That's the dramatic bit. The petrol pump. The headlines. But CORE inflation — the supermarket checkout, the rent, the dentist, the price of a pint — makes up 71% of the CPI. And against that? The same assets don't just fail to protect you. They actually make things worse. My latest for #TEBI unpacks exactly what does work, and what to stop paying for ➡️ shorturl.at/meyTY

The reason why many investors struggle is not they lack financial knowledge.. They struggle because they don't understand #Statistics That's why I've been working with @mark_hebner and @ifadotcom on Pioneers of Probability, a new video series tracing the ideas that underpin modern #Investing back to the mathematicians who figured them out. First up: Fibonacci.. the man who gave Europe the number system that makes every index calculation, every financial model and every compound growth table possible. 👉 shorturl.at/jm3W0

Overconfidence leads many to take risks the data doesn’t support. #BehaviouralFinance #InvestorBias

How much do you need to retire? Whatever number you just thought of, the research suggests you're probably wrong. Kahneman revised his own famous finding before he died. 85% of people underestimate what others need. And trusting your neighbours is worth more than doubling your income. The problem isn't the spreadsheet. It's the assumptions we feed into it. My latest for The Times ➡️ shorturl.at/j2Ijo

Distinguishing luck from strategy is harder than it seems. #SmartInvesting #BehaviouralFinance

The FCA’s new “targeted support” regime launches in April 2026, promising to help millions of investors stuck between free guidance and full financial advice. But what is it, how does it differ from proper advice, and how do you know which one you need? rocklakedistrict.co.uk/financialplann…

What do active fund managers say about their own industry when they think nobody's listening? Researchers from King's College London interviewed 28 senior fund managers in Australia and New Zealand. Some of what they admitted is striking. 🧵
