Cards on the table time. I have a strong dislike for British financial services companies. Ever since the Equitable Life debacle I’ve viewed them all with huge scepticism. Recent experience has proved that nothing much has changed and that the entire industry is a self-serving shambles. Fortunately my point of view is supported by the author of this book. My dilemma is this: How do I make plans for my retirement without having to resort to a large financial services company that’s going to screw me for every £ I want to put aside for a rainy day?
To my delight, this book appears to understand my predicament. Not only am I understood, I’m catered for. Marvellous. I’m used to financial and investment texts being dry, boring and full of caveats. None of that appears in this book. It speaks in a language I can understand and it deals with things from my perspective. It seems to help that the author is almost as anti the financial establishment as I am.
As I skimmed through the book initially I found myself stopping for the little exercises – actually completing them – and then quietly realising that I had learned something not just new but extremely useful. I don’t think you can expect to get all the answers in a book of this size, but it certainly gives me the confidence and a basic understanding to take some steps towards getting this important life skill right.
