Markets are in turmoil. But maybe you have some savings that you want to invest. When you are living in the UK you may favour some FTSE index funds for example. However, is it now a good time to invest these savings?

Last week I got a question from a reader on what I thought about investing in the FTSE at this moment. I’ll come back on that later in this blog post. Let me first comment a little on last week. That was a week full of turmoil; not only in the financial markets but also in Bangkok, where I am living at this moment. Because of the unrest in Bangkok and the forced closing of the schools, we decided to go for a week to the beach on Koh Samui; great decision and great week.
