Investment Clinic: the high earner taking stock tips from ChatGPT

Twenty-nine-year-old Faye has made some sensible investing decisions and … some more outlandish ones. Should this high-earning City worker, who’s dabbled in everything from cryptocurrency to novelty number plates, get a little bit more serious about how she invests? Presenter Claer Barrett, the FT’s consumer editor, is joined by Adam Walkom, co-founder of financial planning firm Permanent Wealth Partners, and Nimesh Shah, CEO of accountancy firm Blick Rothenberg. They speak to Faye about tax-efficient vehicles (such as like venture capital trusts), the six-figure salary tax trap, and why there’s nothing wrong with having a bit of fun investing.
