Brewdog is perhaps the poster child of the crowdfunding movement in the UK. Popularised under the ‘Equity for Punks’ schemes, after years of free beer cases one investor has now been left with a sour taste in his mouth.
Anthony Morrow, a respected founder, business owner and investor shares his experiences as a Brewdog crowdfunder and on other schemes such as burritos and Deliveroo.
He thinks that anyone thinking about the offer of crowdfunding should be very careful and aware of the drawbacks.
Ed and Chris share their experiences too. Ed has invested at one time in the Monzo crowdfund campaign, but is still waiting to see if his ‘on paper’ gains come to fruition. Chris, meanwhile, has never crowdfunded but intends to invest in his local community pub when he gets the opportunity.
The guys share their wider thoughts on whether crowdfunding is worthwhile, or if it is a way for companies to capture online audiences who think they have a stake in the business, only to be sold down the river by venture capitalists behind the scenes.
They also look at the wider implications for equity markets in the UK, including why initial public offerings (IPOs) aren’t necessarily a good time to buy, instead they should be understood as an exit point for successful founders and early-stage investors.
But ultimately, they agree that public and open investment markets are better for the health of businesses and private investors looking to their long-term portfolio growth.

It’s easy to be drawn into ideas that promise high returns and low effort or risk - but for the most part this is either deluded or a straightforward scam.
Pushing back against the more toxic types of online ‘hustle culture’ means redefining what our income is and how we use it to ensure long-term wealth growth.
This means thinking of our income as an asset to be used, valued, nurtured and grown - instead of hoping for a miracle down the road.
A concept made famous by American financial influencers such as Dave Ramsey the idea that ‘income is your most valuable asset’ can help us to ensure we’re not then giving that asset away - be it through debt, overspending or bad investments.
Instead its about ensuring that your income is working as hard as possible to achieve your long-term goals. As our routine mantra on the podcast goes - this means making a plan and sticking to it.
Let us know your thoughts in the comments. How do you ensure your income is working as hard as possible for your long-term future financial health?

Investing can be an emotional process. Especially because it is your money at stake.
Markets are at a strange juncture too - with rumours of AI bubbles, gold soaring and bitcoin hitting all-time highs. It is easy to be swept up by euphoria, or scared into making mistakes.
But what if there was a way to take all the human emotions out of it?
We’re joined this week by Stratiphy founder Daniel Gold to talk about his solution to this problem - quantitative or ‘quant’ investing for the masses.
Typically the preserve of billion dollar investment banks, Stratiphy allows investors to use mathematical, AI and data-driven investment methods that disregard emotion-led decisions and focus on the numbers.
We want to know what you think too. Do you pore over company results? Do you let your heart make the decisions and let your head figure it out later? Let us know your investment style in the comments.

When does your money start working harder than you?
Renowned investor Charlie Munger once said that saving the first 100k of wealth was the hardest part. After that, the ‘tipping point’ meant interest earned would make future compounding ever easier.
In our latest episode, Chris considers his family’s own wealth tipping point and how he calculated it.
Plus Ed asks some searching questions over whether the concept of a wealth tipping point really can work for everyone.
Do you find the concept of a wealth tipping point? Has it galvanised your efforts to hit the magic number? Let us know in the comments.

It’s easy to find influencers online who project an image of home living perfection. But did you ever wonder how they pay for it?
Small improvements can be funded from savings, 0% cards or normal loans but bigger projects require either remortgaging or what is called a ‘second charge mortgage’
Mouthy Money speaks to David Coleman from Positive Lending, a leader provider of second charge mortgages.
David breaks down for Ed and Chris how the loans work, what people need to consider when looking at ways to fund their home improvement and what to look out for in the process.
