In this series of videos I’m thinking about lessons from 2008 with a slight pivot from this video onwards because we’re going to think about things which I learned in 2008 which have been very much reinforced in 2020 and probably with a more of a business…

Hi, Peter Jones, property investor, author, and ex-chartered surveyor. In this short series of videos, I’m looking at lessons which I learned in 2008 in which we can extrapolate forward into 2020.
