This is Money: What's behind the rising tide of financial scams?
Financial scams are on the rise. The coronavirus lockdowns have seen a fresh burst of investment cons with fraudsters impersonating legitimate companies to steal tens of thousands of pounds. Unwitting savers are being lured into fake savings and investments, such as fixed term bonds or share schemes, and transferring large sums to fall victim to clone fraud. What’s behind this burst of crime and how can people protect themselves? On this week’s podcast, Georgie Frost and Simon Lambert discuss the rising tide of fraud, how to stay safe and what more can be done to combat it. Also, on the show, the pair look into the cases of the mortgage prisoners, trapped paying high rates ever since the financial crisis while others have seen their monthly payments slashed. The Deliveroo float is also on the agenda – why did the shares slump as it hit the stock market? And finally, campervans are in hot demand, making this a good time for VW to be launching its new mini Caddy California: with sleeping space for two and an optional tent that turns into a home on wheels for all the family. Would you want one?

The Bigger Picture: Vaccine passports, the SNP & Alba, the Race and Ethnic Disparities Report

And he ponders the naivety of David Cameron, caught up in the type of lobbying effort he once decried.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Why value investors need patience - lots of it
Tim Price, director of Price Value Partners, looks at why benchmarking to stock market indices is a bad idea and why investors should think more about the preservation of capital than chasing the latest market fads. Tim discusses the surge of interest in cryptocurrencies, why gold is less rampant and why value investors, of which he is one, need considerable patience. Citing the ignominious debut of Deliveroo amongst other things, Tim senses the market may be on the point of a big change of sentiment.

The Hypnotist: The Dragon Tree - Hypnosis To Help Your Future Self
A powerful hypnosis session inspired by a visit to the town of Icod De Los Vinos in Tenerife where Adam saw a 1,000-year-old Dragon Tree. The session uses the ancient tree as a metaphor to increase resilience and to plant the seed of an idea that you are 100% responsible for your life as even if unfortunate things happen you are still responsible for how you respond to it or what you learn. There is also a suggestion to do something that your future self will thank you for.
