As someone in the creative industry planning for the future can be difficult. Many do not have the luxury of a monthly steady paycheck, most have no idea how much they will make in 12 months, let alone in 3 years.
This inability to accurately forecast makes life extremely difficult when it comes to trying to get a mortgage or investing. Many creatives I speak to believe the idea of being on the property ladder is a distant dream, but it doesn’t have to be.
As a creative you have much of a right to invest, save and get on the property ladder as anyone else and it is possible. To help me explore this topic I was joined on this month’s Ampah’s Takeaway by Penny Dashfield & Alex Legget from Bevis Mark Private Investment, and Toby Carmichael- Jack an Independent Financial Advisor at Opal Financial Management.
We explore topics like best practices to help save and invest, what mortgage lenders want from you in order to offer a mortgage and the importance of a pension.
If sorting out your finances is your new year’s resolution, then you can’t miss this month’s episode of Ampah’s Takeaway.
