The Investor Way

In this episode, Sam is joined by Pat (X @patcat68), an automotive engineer with more than 30 years of industry experience. Pat's investing journey began alongside his career, with a modest £25 monthly contribution into a PEP - the forerunner of today's ISA. After testing various investing styles over three decades, he has settled on a blend of quality and growth businesses, alongside some occasional opportunistic swing trading. To keep his portfolio low-maintenance while working away from home, Pat relies heavily on investment trusts for diversification, and patience for the compounded returns.
