Ep 432 - Inflation shock returns, Money Market funds & changes to energy bills

Damien Fahy of moneytothemasses.com talks to Andy Leeks about money.

On this week's show Damien explains why history suggests that the Bank of England base rate (and therefore mortgage rates) could stay higher for longer if a second wave of inflation is to be avoided. Damien also looks at money market funds, explaining their pros, their cons, the risks and the potential returns. Finally, Damien and Andy discuss why you should read your energy meter this weekend and how much your energy bill is likely to be this winter compared to last winter.
