Investment advice

Posted on Tuesday, 1st January, 2008 by Ross

Three rules from John Kay, in the January edition of Prospect:

  1. Pay less [primarily commissions, fees, etc.]
  2. Diversify more [between asset classes and within them, remembering that indexes are not diverse]
  3. Be contrarian

These may be my financial New Year’s resolutions.
