Dear Fellow Investor

 

 
I have been an admirer of Ian Rushbrook, manager and largest investor in the Personal Asset Trust, ever since I read about him in Jonathan Davis's book Money Makers - Stock Market Secrets of Britain's Top Professional Investment Managers.
 
Ian unfortunately passed away last year in October, a sad loss to the investment world. Shortly thereafter I stopped following the activities of the Personal Asset Trust also cancelling my subscription to their quarterly newsletter.
 
Earlier this month I came across a insightful blog post by Jonathan Davis, the author of the above book, where he wrote a questions and answer article with the new manager of the Personal Asset Trust. Even thought the interview took place at the end of July, the advice is still timely.
 
Jonathan graciously agreed for me to use the interview in the guest post below.
