ICR313: You need to do these things when you get divorced

ICR313: You need to do these things when you get divorced

02/03/2018 Posted by Martin Bamford Podcast No Comments

In this episode of the podcast, I’m talking about getting divorced. Not an uplifting topic for conversation, I know, but an important one, especially from a financial planning perspective.

I’ll be sharing a few of the most important financial things you need to do when you get divorced.

There’s also a roundup of the latest personal finance news; I answer a listener question about whether to invest in one go or drip-feed money into investments; and there’s the aftershow where I talk about what we’ve been up to at Informed Choice this week – the week that saw the arrival of…the Beast from the East.
