Planning: goals, retirement, common mistakes

Five lessons on thinking in terms of goals, what diversification is, how a pension system is built, which behavioural mistakes are most frequent and how to recognise scams.

• Goals and time horizon — Why you start from goals rather than instruments, and how the time available changes the reasoning.
• Diversification: not depending on one thing — What diversifying means, which risks it reduces, which it does not, and what rebalancing is.
• Retirement: how the system is built — The three pillars of pension provision, what the replacement rate means and why the subject matters most to the young.
• The most common behavioural mistakes — Loss aversion, herd behaviour, overconfidence: how the mind works when faced with money and which habits help.
• Recognising financial scams — The signs that recur in unauthorised offers, the checks to make before handing money to anyone and what to do if in doubt.
