    Can Stuart Kirk double his money in eight years?

    · Money Clinic with Claer Barrett

    How does one double a sizeable portfolio in under a decade? The short answer is by taking more investment risk - and in today’s episode one of the FT’s most experienced investment columnists weighs up the potential risks. 


    Stuart Kirk has set an ambitious financial goal to hit ahead of his 60th birthday — growing his portfolio from just over ÂŁ500,000 today to ÂŁ1mn by 2032. 


    Will he be persuaded to take a punt on flashy US tech stocks, dabble in alternative investments such as private equity, go for gold, or even gamble with cryptocurrency?


    In the edited highlights from the FT Weekend Festival in London, host Claer Barrett invites Stuart to present his portfolio to the FT Money tent, before taking a grilling from inquisitive FT subscribers in the audience.

    Best of Money Clinic: ‘Sadmin’ – the side-hustle nobody wants

    · Money Clinic with Claer Barrett

    When FT columnist Miranda Green lost her father, she expected the grief to be long-lived. What she didn’t expect was that she would still be attempting to settle her father's financial affairs nearly a year later with multiple calls to banks, building societies, insurers and utility companies. 


    In an episode which first aired last September, Miranda tells presenter Claer Barrett about her experiences dealing with inconsiderate call handlers and poor processes in the private sector. Claer puts Miranda’s concerns to Eric Leenders, the director of personal finance at UK Finance, the trade body that represents about 300 financial services organisations. What are they doing to address the problem?

    The cost of insurance premiums is rising to record highs, but levels of customer service are falling for customers who end up having to make a claim, according to a new report.

Host Claer Barrett sits down with Sam Richardson, the deputy editor of Which? Money and Ian Smith, the FT’s insurance correspondent, to find out why insurance has become such a minefield for consumers, and how to reduce the cost of premiums without compromising the quality of cover.

    The Five-Minute Investor from Money Clinic: What’s a bull market?

    · Money Clinic with Claer Barrett

    Global stock markets are charging along breaking record after record — but what’s driving this ‘bull market’ and how much longer can it last? Plus, what could it mean for investors if a ‘bear market’ awakens from hibernation? In our new miniseries, The Five-Minute Investor, consumer editor Claer Barrett challenges Rob Armstrong, co-host of FT’s Unhedged podcast and author of the Unhedged newsletter, to explain the factors that drive bull and bear markets, and if individual investors should reconsider their strategy.
