For context, Neil is currently in his 40's and is planning to build his Stocks & Shares ISA portfolio to £500k+ to enable an earlier retirement.

But that's not all. We cover his biggest investing mistakes, favourite investing books, why he doesn't plan to invest into bonds, how he plans to live off of his investment portfolio, and a lot more.
