My son is in the fortunate position of having a healthy savings pot in a GIA, thanks to gifts/inhe…","meta_description":"It's another Q&A show where Roger and Pete answer YOUR questions about such mighty subjects as bridging the gap from retirement to state pension, CGT…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1974,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-meaningful-money-personal-finance-podcast-1082980/episodes/qa48-listener-questions-episode-48/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-meaningful-money-personal-finance-podcast-1082980/qa48-listener-questions-episode-48.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
