The role of the dad

Greg: Hi everybody, today I am here again with Al from Aviva to talk a little bit more about investing. 

Al: Greg, great to see you again

Greg: Likewise, Al.

Greg: So, since we last met I have been thinking a lot about my role as a father, so I thought I’d bring you somewhere that meant a lot to me and my dad when I was growing up, and that’s the Sunday morning football pitch!

Al: Well, thanks for inviting me. I’ve never been before, this place is massive! But I have got one problem:I have not brought my kit with me.

Greg: Al, don’t worry, it’s probably a bit too cold for you to be wearing your shorts today.

Al: Okay, good!

Greg: Growing up my dad – he was my hero. We were playing football so much together and watching the football; he even coached my little league team. And that always made me feel so secure, and I am really interested in knowing  how I can provide that same security to my children.

Al: Yes so, the last time we spoke one of your biggest worries was the fact that you thought your money could be locked away; but now you know that with Wealthify at Aviva that is just not the case.

Greg: Yes, precisely that. You really actually put my mind at rest. I would say the one reservation or concern that I have now is the initial investment. We’ve always got money in reserve for emergencies and day to day spending, but I just don’t think that I’ve got the lump sum to actually put down to start an investment.

Al: Yeah well, that kind of fear that you need a lump sum, that’s one of the biggest misconceptions about investing generally.

Greg: How do you mean?

Al: Well, with Wealthify you can start at any level you want; you can start putting some money in, you can start small or you can invest big.

Greg: So, what I can start with like, putting £100 in and top it up each month?

Al: You can start with £100, but with Wealthify the great thing is you can actually start with £1 if you want!

Greg: Amazing!

Al: So here you go Greg, this is Wealthify and on this you can decide how much you want to invest upfront, how much you want to invest on an ongoing basis and not only that, you can monitor it 24/7.

Greg: Wow, that sounds really interesting. If think we’re gonna have to go home and give it a try with Alice!

Al: Cool, well I am glad it’s been of some use, and I look forward to hearing how you go on!

Greg: Awesome, thank you so much Al.

Al: Cheers, mate.

Greg: Alright guys, thank you so much for watching my video, but before I go, I have always wanted to score a goal on TV, and I am guessing now is as good an opportunity as any, so here I go! Wish me luck.
