About

Welcome to the Small Investor Toolbox, a podcast and blog in which I share and review the best resources that cross my path on my investing journey.

The podcast

Each week I will review a different book or resource and give you my honest take on how it fits into my investing life. In addition, I will share one article and one podcast that I have found particularly useful, informative, or entertaining.

Your erstwhile host

I’m Allan Tweddle. I’ve been a small investor for a few years now. I manage my own small portfolio of mostly UK shares.

I am a qualified chartered accountant, which gives me some advantages when looking at company accounts. However, I have no investment training, no professional investing qualifications, and have never worked in the field. For this reason I understand what it is like to be a small, private investor. We each bring our own skills and experience, but in order to succeed we need to know what to read, who to follow, where, and how to research, and much more.

The Small Investor Toolbox is my way of sharing everything I’ve learned in order to help other small investors on their investment journeys.
