Lesson 48-2 Planning a share portfolio
However, there areundoubtedly some wrong ways, and you can be sure that none of our five adviserswould have suggested sinking all (or perhaps any) of your money into Periwigs*.
So what should youdo? We'll assume that you have sorted out the basics -- like mortgages,pensions, insurance and access to sufficient cash reserves. You should thenestablish your own individual aims. These are partly a matter of personalcircumstances, partly a matter of psychology.
For instance, ifyou are older you have less time to recover from any major losses, and you maywell wish to boost your pension income. So preserving your capital andgenerating extra income are your main priorities.
