In this enlightening episode, I chat with friend and sponsor of the CHP page, Niall O' Connor who is a certified financial planner to demystify the world of personal finance. We begin with the basics of investing, exploring its importance for financial growth. Delve into common investment avenues, understanding their risk and returns to make informed choices. Tackling common fears around investing, we shed light on how it differs from gambling. We then touch on the critical decision of investing versus paying down debt. Shifting gears, we unfold the concept of pensions and the pivotal role they play in retirement planning. We discuss the variety of pension plans available and how to choose one that aligns with your financial goals. Finally, we explore simple strategies for balancing investments and pension contributions, even on a tight budget. Tune in for actionable steps to kickstart your investment and pension planning journey, empowering you to take charge of your financial future.
