In this episode, I dive deep into the world where ethics meet investments, and I'm thrilled to guide you through the often-misunderstood realm of Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. It's not just about aligning your portfolio with your personal values, but also about securing a robust financial future for you and your family.
Together, we'll explore how to responsibly invest in the great companies that innovate and refuse to lose our money, and I'll share with you the tools and strategies to do so without forgoing profits. This is for those who believe in the power of conscientious investing and for anyone looking to navigate the challenges of balancing moral integrity with market returns.
We'll confront fears, debunk myths, and discuss practical solutions that cater to your principles while aiming for a secure retirement. I'm right there with you, supporting ESG values and discussing how modern investment tools like indices and ETFs can reflect individual beliefs.
It's all about empowering you with the knowledge to make informed decisions that resonate with your ethics and financial goals. So, join me as we tackle the big questions and uncover the realities of SRI and ESG investing.
Whether you're already on the path of responsible investing or just curious about what it entails, this episode is an invaluable resource for managing your wealth with a clear conscience. Let's take this enlightening journey together and empower our investment choices in the ever-evolving landscape of finance.

Tweetable Quotes
"The importance of investors having an 'adult memory' can't be overstated. It's about committing to owning shares in the great businesses of the US and the world, which can bolster asset accumulation, retirement income, and legacy creation."
"Whether it's responsible doesn't predictably move the long-term needle. The cost of the tool has a larger known effect on the long-term performance outcome to a client than does the moniker responsible."
"The opportunity to invest with SRI and ESG in mind is a privilege. I'm proud to do it, I'm proud to offer it as a choice for people who can afford to make that choice. It isn't right for everyone."
