Damien then takes a look at the soaring price of gold, discussing the reasons behind its recent rally to all-time highs and the potential outlook. Even if you're not an investor, listen closely as it can have important implications for your home insurance.

• *BONUS PODCAST* - How to build the perfect investment portfolio

  In this bonus episode of the Money to the Masses podcast, Damien is joined by Kyle Caldwell, Funds & Investment Education editor at Interactive Investor. During their chat, they discussed the intricacies of building investment portfolios, focusing on key aspects such as diversification, asset allocation and the importance of understanding fund performance. This should not be considered financial advice or a personal recommendationKey insights from the episode include:🧩 Why getting your asset mix right is crucial – it could be the biggest driver of your portfolio's performance.💪 The power of diversification, spreading your money across different types of assets like shares, bonds, property, and even gold, to potentially weather different market conditions and how it's easy to overlook emerging markets.📊 Understanding how different investments correlate – which assets can be good at offering a different performance pattern to equities. 💯 They explored some well-known "perfect portfolios", how they’ve performed and how they might work for UK investors.⚖️ The concept of having a core set of reliable investments alongside some smaller, potentially higher-growth "satellite" holdings.🎯 Damien's own research into how many funds might be optimal in a sector.🔍 How often you should really be checking up on your investments and what to focus on when you do.💸 For those looking to generate income, we talked about building income portfolios and the potential benefits of investment trusts.📉 Damien and Kyle also touched on lower-risk options like money market funds, which have become more attractive recently.🇬🇧 And the renewed interest in UK government bonds (gilts) as a potential portfolio stabiliserCheck out Interactive Investor's Managed ISAThis discussion is provided for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered a personal recommendation.
