‘Living on shaky grounds too close to the edge, let’s see if I know the ledge’ – Eric B and Rakim. We’re having a discussion today around the share markets, inflation, trends, and how to think about investing with the level of caution required for today’s world.

My guest today: Julian McCormack from Platinum Asset Management  

Building wealth is about owning the right to have choice in the future – choices for you and for what’s important to you. Investing, or the practice of putting skin in a game where the odds are increasingly stacked in your favour over time, can often invoke emotions in us that we mistakenly thought we’ve already mastered. When the rubber hits the road and your hard-earned dollars are invested, logically, you want to understand the environment in which your dollars are at play in.

This environment is in a constant state of change. So today, let’s talk about that – enjoy!
