  • For Christmas we've gone into the archive to dig out one of our favourite episodes.
    Everyone talks about diversification, but how diverse do you really need to be? Can you just invest in one fund? Ramin Nakisa is personal finance YouTube royalty in the UK. He walks us through some of the major assets classes and their pros and cons - but also why one investment might just be enough for you to beat most professional investors, forever.
    This episode was recorded in July 2023 so some information may have changed since then.
