How did the month of August turn out for you? Did you take the chance to review your financial goals after reading our article on the topic?

I had to revise my financial goals slightly this month as they were quite ambitious, and didn’t take into account some of the everyday realities of life. It can be disappointing when you don’t stay on track in reaching your goals, but it’s important to realise this and take steps to re-evaluate and update them.

This month we also dived deeper into Listed Investment Companies (LICs) and explored how they differ from unlisted managed funds.

Here are some of my favourite articles from around the web that we’ve read this month, which are definitely worth checking out.
