When is the right time to sell an investment? That's our main topic this week, inspired by a listener question.
There's also a roundup of the latest personal finance news - everything you need to know about what's going on in the world of money in five news items.
I share my favourite money article this week, a random fact about money and an inspirational quote.
There's also the aftershow, where I talk about what's been going on at Informed Choice this week.
