The Compound and Friends

“Because of the complexity of these compensation structures, I find that most people love the idea of having equity but do not understand it. With companies paying up to 50% of their employees total compensation package in equity, it’s important to understand what exactly is at stake when you decide to accept that job offer for “the next big thing.”Dasarte Yarnway (@dasarteyarnway) is the founder of Berknell Financial group which is a fee-only financial planning firm headquartered in San Francisco. Dasarte is also the host of The Young Money Podcast. Tadas got Dasarte on the phone to talk about his newly published book Pay Me in Equity. In some industries, equity compensation is an important part of your pay package, so understanding the details is crucial. Beyond the financial aspects, ownership is an important concept that applies in different areas of our lives.Where to find Dasarte's work:Pay Me in Equity: A Millennial Guide to Understanding Equity CompensationThe Young Money PodcastYoung Money: 4 Proven Actions to Design Your Wealth While You Still Can 1-click play or subscribe on your favorite podcast app Subscribe to the mini podcast on iTunes or Spotify Enable our Alexa skill here - "Alexa, play the Compound show!" Talk to us about your portfolio or financial plan here: https://ritholtzwealth.com/ Obviously nothing on this channel should be considered as personalized financial advice just for you or a solicitation to buy or sell any securities.

Once upon a time, quality financial advice was only available for millionaires and the sophisticated investors who had the expertise to find the right advisors and understand exactly what they were getting. Non-millionaires and younger investors were ignored by traditional Wall Street brokerage firms, left to fend for themselves or, worse, to be preyed upon by unscrupulous brokers and insurance salesmen with skewed incentives.  But times have changed, thanks to an innovative wave of new advisory firms, new services from large institutions and disruptive technology. Now, quality investment advice is available to everyone. Automated asset management services and robo-advisors unleashed a storm of creativity and progress, and now human advisors are adopting these technologies to incorporate into their practices, serving a new customer that they otherwise would not have been able to reach and help. We built Liftoff as a way to serve young investors and those who do not meet the minimum asset levels of traditional wealth management firms. Rather than send our fans and friends away to figure things out for themselves, we wanted to be able to help them ourselves, which led to years of development and evolution. Liftoff is a collaboration between Ritholtz Wealth Management and Betterment, combining what we believe is best in class asset allocation technology with the human touch of certified financial planners and advisors. We'd love for you to try us out and see what it's all about!You can learn more at https://liftoffinvest.com/ right now!1-click play or subscribe on your favorite podcast app Subscribe to the mini podcast on iTunes or Spotify Enable our Alexa skill here - "Alexa, play the Compound show!" Talk to us about your portfolio or financial plan here:http://ritholtzwealth.com/ Obviously nothing on this channel should be considered as personalized financial advice just for you or a solicitation to buy or sell any securities.

“Where investing as a hobby might be sensible is with a small amount of your assets that you can afford to lose, and that you can handle psychologically. Being under the illusion that diving into investing in a meaningful way will result in above average performance is dangerous and likely to end poorly based on historical studies.” David Schawel (@davidschawel) is the CIO of Family Management Corporation and is a veteran observer of the financial markets. Tadas got David on the phone to talk about a recent post of his entitled “Investing as a Hobby” where he writes about what a hobby is and why investing is likely not a worthwhile hobby for most. You can read more at David’s blog: https://medium.com/@DavidSchawel/investing-as-a-hobby-8d048d5d98bd1-click play or subscribe on your favorite podcast app Subscribe to the mini podcast on iTunes or Spotify Enable our Alexa skill here - "Alexa, play the Compound show!" Talk to us about your portfolio or financial plan here: https://ritholtzwealth.com/ Obviously nothing on this channel should be considered as personalized financial advice just for you or a solicitation to buy or sell any securities.

“As with most things in life you are in charge of your own stuff. If you want to drive a new luxury vehicle, more power to you. Just realize that there are financial (and environmental) trade-offs involved. But don’t be under the illusion that anyone really cares what car you are driving.” Ben Carlson recently got Tadas Viskanta, Director of Investor Education at Ritholtz Wealth Management, on the phone Skype to talk about a recent post of his entitled “Why Your Luxury Car is Unlikely to Materially Boost Your Happiness” where he writes about the high financial costs of driving a new, luxury vehicle. You can read more at Tadas' blog: https://abnormalreturns.com/2019/06/25/luxury-car-unlikely-happiness-boost/1-click play or subscribe on your favorite podcast app Subscribe to the mini podcast on iTunes or Spotify Enable our Alexa skill here - "Alexa, play the Compound show!" Talk to us about your portfolio or financial plan here: https://ritholtzwealth.com/ Obviously nothing on this channel should be considered as personalized financial advice just for you or a solicitation to buy or sell any securities.
