Ep. 6 Case Conference: This Investment is Hot

After our detailed examination of the basics of investment strategy, we are now delving into some common case studies that you may encounter on your investing journey. Our studies take us through the looming recession and why it should not be a major concern for investors, the economic activity of America's response to a recession, and deciding on how much, with whom, and when you should invest your money. We also critically assess what you need to be aware of before seeking a lower-cost investment model, how to save while making donations, value versus growth, and what Ben and Mark have to say about a particular hot investment idea.
