WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT, IF YOU REALLY WANNA KNOW
In 2021 I took on an apprentice. Not one from Alan Sugar's boardroom and certainly not one I can easily fire. I employed my son. A chance to pass on knowledge and an opportunity to learn, for both of us.
​
From X to Z has a number of objectives.
​
A means to update you about current news and views on financial planning and investment markets. An interactive way for him take all of this on board. A medium for readers to learn, especially the coming generations.
​
But most importantly a collaboration, something we intend to build together, from top to bottom.
From X To Z.
​
2024 UPDATE - Apprentice 1 career successfully launched; Apprentice 2 project underway.
