Tall fellas UNITE! Joel has to contend with talking with someone who is taller than him for a change, but that’s mostly besides the point (unless tall guys actually invest differently than the rest of the population!?). We’re joined by Ben Felix – one of the clearest voices in finance and investing who is co-host of the Rational Reminder podcast and also runs a killer YouTube channel full of thoughtful, evidence-based investing advice. Ben is a CFA, CFP, the Chief Investment Officer at PWL Capital and more importantly, he helps regular folks understand the why behind their investing decisions. We discuss topics like:
- The biggest reason to invest rather than save
- Savings rates based on individual circumstances
- How more financial advisors are shifting to behavioral coaching
- The only free lunch in invested
- Why target date funds aren’t optimal
- What DIY investors need to look out for
- And plenty of other topics!
