And maybe share this with a friend who's thinking about getting into investing too.

I'm Aideen Finnegan.

This is Better With Money.

We'll be back next week.

You have come to the right place if you've heard Simon Harris's promises to introduce a new savings and investment scheme, but still can't quite get a handle on what it means.

We're breaking it down today.

So by the end of this episode, you'll be up to speed.

Know if it's for you and what alternatives there are that you could take action on right now instead of waiting for a scheme that may or may not happen.

I'm Aideen Finnegan, and this is Better With Money from the Irish Times.

It goes without saying, but let me say it anyway, investing carries a risk of losing money and this episode is for information purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.

I'm joined today by Kel Gallivan, qualified financial advisor, author and long-time investor and who's known online as Mrs. Smart Money HQ.

Welcome back to the podcast, Kel.

And you, you were on with us before back in series one last year, and you told us all about your path to investing and people can go back and listen to that episode in full because it was riveting.

And I will leave a link in the show notes.

But in a nutshell, for any newbies who've joined us, why did you leave your job in medical sciences to do what you're doing today?

I was naive.

Well, I mean, what a history it is.

And you've come to become very experienced at this because you've like 20 plus years investing.

Is that right?

Yes.
