On this week's podcast Damien discusses the research analysing the trends in retirement spending, including how spending typically increases when you first retire and then doesn't fall as fast as most people think. Damien also reveals the implications of the research on saving for your retirement.

 

Next, Damien reveals a mortgage hack that lets you lock in a low fixed rate deal now, even if your current fixed rate deal doesn't end until later this year. It also means you can avoid an early repayment charge from your existing lender.

 

Finally, Andy talks about the apps that can help cut your grocery bill.
