It’s easy to ‘marry’ an opinion. The trouble is it blinkers you to any other possibility but the one you foresee happening. With trading, you might analyse the markets yourself or you might invest in the outlook of a market commentator. And at a specific moment in time it might make perfect sense. The logic […]
It was a week which shook the footballing world. News that………..I won’t be able to play Sunday League Football for a while because of an ACL injury. I am writing this while waiting in line for news on whether my ACL and meniscus tears can be repaired. If not, I will have to contemplate the […]

Did you know Liverpool had one of the first futures exchanges in the world? You probably knew that import and export was a big part of the city’s success in the nineteenth century. And yes, sadly, the slave trade played a big part too. But I had no idea of the history of futures trading […]

Now don’t worry, I’m not blowing my own trumpet here. These notes were from when I was still trying to figure things out. I’d been reading all […]
I have managed to get to Bangkok, just before Boris locked down. Phew! I was stuck in lockdown in March so was delighted to have dodged it on this occasion. I am in quarantine at the moment for 14 days in a hotel. There is plenty to keep me occupied. What Really Wins Money newsletter […]

Our natural response to risk and uncertainty is excellent at keeping you away from harm in many real-world situations. It is what has kept the human race alive for millennia. But it’s not so good when it comes to working with risk as a tool to make money, like we need to when trading from […]
I am beginning my long road back to Thailand and ‘er indoors. I only came to this part of the world to celebrate my 50th birthday and have been here ever since! It’s now getting a bit too chilly so this repatriation flight has come at the right time! I would like to look today […]
