    From inflation to investing mistakes: Best of the This is Money podcast from 2021

    From inflation to investing mistakes: Best of the This is Money podcast from 2021
    It's safe to say 2021 has been an eventful one for the economy and personal finance – and our podcast has covered it all.

    Georgie Frost takes a look back at some of the best bits of the show starring Simon Lambert, Lee Boyce, Tanya Jefferies and Helen Crane.

    We talk about investing mistakes and what you can learn from them. How much a lifetime will cost? And what is behind the inflation surge that emerged in the last few months of the year?

    There is a bit about house prices – naturally – and we chat over our £1bn underpaid state pension victory.

    And we have a Dragon in the house. Simon catches up with new Dragons' Den star Steven Bartlett, who has a hugely successful podcast of his own.

    He talks through his views on the traditional route to success and why it is outdated. Happy New Year!

    How big a pension pot do you need to save for a comfortable retirement?

    Pension and investing editor, Tanya Jefferies, discusses research that puts a figure on what people need to retire on, in this excerpt from the This is Money podcast.

    Alongside host Georgie Frost, she talks about Which? research into pension savings and how people can build the pot they need.

    Also, This is Money's assistant personal finance editor Helen Crane looks at whether you should prioritise getting on the property ladder ahead of a pension or pay equal attention to both.

    And the team look at how younger workers can build the retirement savings they will need.
