One thing we've learned from interviewing hundreds of people about money is that the numbers are only part of the story. Today we’re speaking to Neil, better known as Neil Invests, not just about his portfolio, but the journey that got him there - from sleeping on his sister's floor and battling shame and depression, to building £175k in his ISA over 6 years and being planning to retire at 50.
