## Resource

Susan wrote into us: What do you think of the ‘Die with Zero’ philosophy by Bill Perkins? I know many people who work so hard that they never get to enjoy retirement. There are three widows in my gym group in their 50s. I also know many people hoarding money in their late 70s, frightened to spend anything. 💬 Do you have a money story you'd like to share on the podcast? ⁠https://makingmoney.email/listener-story-form 🤝 Want 1:1 financial help from us?

There will be no additional charge for you. Remember investments can fall and rise - and past performance is no guarantee of future results. Other fees may apply. Your money is at risk. This is not financial advice. The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life.
