Episode Description

The secrets to growing one’s wealth lie far beyond just investing strategies and financial products. The options for investing are endless, and their sheer number can be overwhelming, but in Investing Without Wall Street: The Five Essentials of Financial Freedom, Sheldon Jacobs shows how to achieve the greatest wealth with the least effort. He focuses on what investors actually do with their investments, rather than teaching strategies that read well but are unessential. We will discuss five essentials that investors need to concentrate on, and what they can safely ignore, how to use the media to get the best investment advice and recommendations, the case for using a market timer, why specific security recommendations don’t make the five essentials, and how to achieve complete portfolio diversification with only two funds.
