Let's talk pensions and inheritance tax, in plain English 🙂

Think of your pension like a big savings jar you've been filling up your whole working life, so you've got money for later in life. Right now, if there's money left in that jar when someone passes away, it usually goes straight to their family without the taxman taking a slice.

From April 2027, that's changing. If there's a decent amount left in the jar, it might now count as part of everything else someone owns (their house, savings, investments) when working out inheritance tax. Anything over a certain amount could be taxed at 40%, which is a big bite.

Don't panic though, most people won't be affected by this at all 😊 It mainly applies to families who've built up a fair bit in pensions on top of other savings and property.

But if that sounds like it could be you or someone in your family, it's worth having a chat with someone who knows the ins and outs, just so there are no surprises down the line.

We're always happy to have a friendly, no pressure chat if you'd like to understand how this affects your family 💬



This post is for general information only and does not constitute financial advice. The value of pensions and investments can go down as well as up, and you may get back less than you originally invested. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and current legislation, both of which may change in the future.

You've probably heard the saying don't put all your eggs in one basket 🧺 but did you know that's actually really good advice for your money too?

Imagine putting every penny you have into just one thing, one company, one type of investment. If that one thing has a bad day, so does all your money. Spreading it out across different things, like stocks, property, and other investments, means if one dips, the others might be doing just fine, which helps even things out over time.

It doesn't mean you'll never see a dip, nothing's ever completely risk free, but it's a sensible way of not putting all your hopes on one outcome. 🌱

And just like anything else, it's worth checking in every now and then to make sure your mix still makes sense for where you are in life.

If you've never really thought about how spread out your savings or investments are, it might be worth a friendly chat. No pressure, no jargon, just a chat over a brew. ☕

Ever notice how life just doesn't stick to the plan? 😅 One minute everything's settled, then suddenly there's a new job, a new baby, or retirement popping up faster than you expected.

Think of your money a bit like your car. You wouldn't just fill it up once and expect it to run forever. It needs regular check ups to keep it running smoothly, and your finances are exactly the same.

A little check in now and then means fewer surprises down the road, and a lot more peace of mind. We speak to local families and business owners every week who just want a bit of reassurance they're heading in the right direction. No jargon, no pressure, just a friendly chat. ☕

If it's been a while since you looked at your money situation, why not send us a message? We're always happy to help. 👍

Happy Yorkshire Day everyone!

Whatever you're up to today, hope you're having a good one. There's something proper about round here, we don't do flashy, we just get on with things properly.

Same goes for money really. No need for anything complicated, just steady little habits that add up over time, a bit put by here, a good plan there, and it all comes together eventually.

Wishing you all the very best today, wherever you're reading this from. And if you ever fancy a chat about getting your own savings or plans sorted, we're only ever a message away 😊



⚠️ Cash savings mentioned are held with FSCS protected UK banks and are not investments. Capital is at risk with pensions, bonds, ISAs and other investments, the value of which can go down as well as up, and you may get back less than you invest. This is not personal advice.

Thursday's Thought

Have you noticed how everyday prices steadily climb?

This is inflation at work - the gradual increase in the cost of goods and services.

What does this mean for you?

Inflation reduces the buying power of your money, so your savings might not go as far in the future as they do today. If the growth in your savings doesn’t match inflation, you could see the value of your cash decrease over time.

Being aware of inflation empowers you to make smarter financial decisions and plan with confidence for your future.

Get in touch with Steven Bell at True Potential Wealth Management to learn more about managing inflation’s impact on your finances.

Ever left money in a savings account for years and forgotten to check what it's actually earning? 🙋

You're not on your own, loads of us do it. Turns out UK savers are missing out on an estimated £6.39 billion a year in interest, just by leaving cash sat in accounts that pay next to nothing.

Here's a simple way to picture it. Imagine your savings are a garden. If you never top it up or move it to better soil, it just sits there and does nothing. A few small changes can help it grow instead of standing still.

There's a service that lets you compare savings accounts from over 20 UK banks in one place, so you're not stuck with whatever your usual bank offers. Right now you can find easy access accounts around 3.82%, notice accounts around 4.08% and fixed accounts up to 4.65% (these move about, so always worth checking the current rate before you decide).

And because your money can be spread across a few different banks, you get some extra peace of mind too. Every bank is protected by the FSCS up to £120,000, so spreading your savings about can mean more of it is covered overall.

We help people sort out their savings and their bigger future plans (pensions, ISAs, that sort of thing) so it all fits together nicely instead of being scattered everywhere. 🌱

Fancy finding out where your savings actually stand? Send us a message, no pressure at all 😊

Thursday thought 💭

You've probably seen the news. A new Prime Minister, lots of talk about the pound and interest rates, and everyone with an opinion on what happens next.

Here's a simple way to think about it. Imagine you're halfway through baking a cake and someone changes the oven settings on you. A bit annoying, might need a few extra minutes, but it doesn't mean you throw the whole cake in the bin.

Political changes like this tend to make markets jumpy for a while. Sterling wobbles, some numbers move around on the news, and then, usually, things settle down again once people know a bit more about what's actually going to happen.

If you've got money invested for the long term, the biggest risk usually isn't the wobble itself, it's panicking and pulling everything out without a proper plan. That tends to cost more than just riding it out.

If all the headlines have got you wondering whether your money's ok, we're always up for a friendly, jargon free chat. No lecture, promise.

School's out! 🎉 Six weeks of holidays, sunshine (hopefully ☀️), and let's be honest, a fair few extra costs.

New research says the average cost of keeping kids entertained and looked after over the summer holidays has gone up again, to around £191 a week per child. That's clubs, days out, snacks, the lot. It adds up fast!

Here's a simple way to think about it. Imagine your money is like a biscuit tin. Every week you pop a little bit in, so when summer (or Christmas, or a rainy day) comes along, there's already something in the tin instead of having to find it all at once.

That's really all financial planning is at its simplest. Just making sure you've got a plan for the costs you can see coming, and a bit of a safety net for the ones you can't.

Whether you're off to the seaside, the local park, or just trying to survive the holidays one day at a time, we hope you have a brilliant summer 😊

If you ever fancy a friendly, jargon free chat about getting your finances feeling a bit more organised, our door's always open.

Thursday's Thought...

Building financial security takes patience. Financial markets go through highs and lows, and reacting to every short-term change can slow your progress. By focusing on a long-term financial plan, you can make steady progress toward your goals while managing risks effectively.

It’s also important to regularly review your plan with a professional to keep it aligned with your life and the market. Interested in learning more?
