With higher levels of investment risk come higher levels of short-term volatility. If you think you can stomach a 40% drop in the value of your portfolio, without panicking, then being 100% invested in stocks and shares may be right for you. If you think that would stress you out, then you need to reduce the risk by adding an allocation to bonds, or other diversifying assets, to your portfolio.

| The 3 Big Mortgage Mistakes EVERYONE Makes (Real world examples) | 30 Oct 2026 | 00:15:33 | |
👉🏻 *Looking for help with Financial Planning?* I am a Chartered Wealth Manager and Partner in a financial planning practice based in the UK. If you would like to find out more about working with us, please follow this link: https://go.novawm.com/yt/28In this, you'll see how we saved one client £124,000, why paying off your mortgage may be a big mistake and why high-interest rates are not as bad as you think.I want to ask that you keep an open mind whilst watching this video.We all have pre-conditioned views of whether mortgages or debt are good or bad. But these views are often not our own. Instead, they’re typically formed early in life, often from our parents. Perhaps your parents were big spenders and liked to live on the edge, with large mortgages, and you saw it blow up in their faces. Or, on the other hand, maybe they were big savers and paid off their mortgages as fast as they could, or never had them at all. Perhaps you've even had it drummed into you that all debt is bad.We see the same thing with stock market investing or pensions. If someone we know has had a bad experience with them, we're likely to assume that they're bad. Or, on the other hand, if someone we know, or see online, has made a load of money betting on high-risk single stocks, we'll assume that’s a great way to make money.And this is because we put a lot of weight on the stories we hear, from people we know.But you need to look past these anecdotes and make your own decisions based on data.Capital at risk. Past performance is used as a guide only. It is no guarantee of future returns. Different funds and asset classes carry varying levels of risk depending on the geographical region and industry sector. You should make yourself aware of these specific risks prior to investing. The property market can be illiquid; consequently, there can be times when investors will be unable to sell their holdings. Property valuations are subjective and a matter of judgement. Mortgage rates and eligibility are dependent on your personal circumstances. With interest only mortgages there is a chance that the repayment vehicle you have in place won't perform as well as you hoped, leaving you unable to afford the lump sum. In this case, you may need to sell your home or find another way to pay off the balance. Prevailing tax rates and reliefs are dependent on your individual circumstances and are subject to change.

| Why Earning More Money Will Never Make You Happy | 28 Oct 2026 | 00:13:16 | |
Looking for help with Financial Planning?I am a Chartered Wealth Manager and Partner in a financial planning practice based in the UK. If you would like to find out more about working with us, please follow this link: https://go.novawm.com/yt/3Can money buy you happiness? In this video, I deep-dive into the science behind why money can't buy happiness and discuss how our relentless pursuit of money is sabotaging our mental wellbeing. The science behind why simply earning more money will never make you happy:*"High income improves evaluation of life but not emotional well-being"*Daniel Kahneman and Angus Deaton 2010https://www.pnas.org/content/107/38/16489*"Lottery winners and accident victims: is happiness relative?"*P Brickman, D Coates, R Janoff-Bulman 1978https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/690806/*Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs*https://www.simplypsychology.org/maslow.htmlThe amount past which money ceases to make you happy will depend on where you live and the size of your family. But roughly this converts to: *US $75,000UK £40,000London £55,000*The point is not to fixate on what that figure is for you, but just to be mindful that you will, as some point, get to a position where earning more money will not have the same effects on your mental wellbeing as it did before. Being aware of this will allow you to then start to divert your efforts into areas of life that will actually help you and the people around you. The hedonic treadmill, also known as *hedonic adaptation*, is the observed tendency of humans to quickly return to a relatively stable level of happiness despite major positive or negative events or life changes.When I was a financial adviser, I worked with people earning thousands and some people earning millions a year. And I can tell you that money is not a predictor of happiness. After a certain point, more money ceases to make us happy. This point is generally after we have enough money to satisfy our basic needs, as detailed in Maslows Hierarchy of needs. https://www.simplypsychology.org/maslow.htmlThe actual monetary figure that you'd need to accomplish this will depend on where you live. But once you are earning enough, your efforts would be much better spent on building relationships and finding a true purpose in life. However, money can buy you freedom, and it does this by allowing you to make choices. To choose where you live, or what job you do. To be able to see a doctor whenever you need to or get help looking after children. It definitely helps to make life easier and gives you more time to focus on the important things in life... or so you'd think. But just as money can free you it can also become a trap. As people earn more and more, they become accustomed to the luxuries that they can afford. So much so that they are unable to give them up and end up spending more than they can afford or getting stuck in jobs that they hate. The classic case of Golden Handcuffs.DISCLAIMER:This channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute financial advice - James is not responsible for investment actions taken by viewers.

But there are useful tools we can use to help guide our decisions. When I first put Ben's details into Timeline the output looked more positive than in my own model. This is because my model uses more conservative expected returns (7.5% for global equities and 2.5% for govt bonds) than the historical averages Times uses. I thought this discrepancy would distract viewers from the real lesson at hand. So, I increased the level of expenditure to £45,000 from 55-75 and to £35,000 from 75-95. With this, the median line neatly ran out at 95, and we could still see the same effects of retiring later. James Shack™ property of James ShackellCopyright © James Shackell 2022.

| A Recession is Coming | Two reasons why I'm still buying stocks | 21 Oct 2026 | 00:16:53 | |
There are two things that you need to understand about the stock market. 1) A ≠ BThe stock market is one of - if not the - most complex system we know. The number of variables that influence stock prices is near-infinite. And any patterns we observe, or opportunities we see to predict what might happen, are short-lived and eroded by the activities of other investors. If a new event "A" occurred, and it looked like it was going to cause "B", the market would move within minutes to bake this into stock prices. This brings me nicely to reason number 2:2) It's forward-lookingThe stock market is constantly weighing the odds and potential outcomes of what might happen in the future. So all the risks you read in the newspaper will already be baked into stock prices. Does the market get it right all the time, no, does it get it right more than you? Yes.You can either buy into that collective intelligence, and trust the market, or you can pit your wits against it. 👉🏻 *Looking for help with Financial Planning?* I am a Chartered Wealth Manager and Partner in a financial planning practice based in the UK.
