25 Years of Teaching Investors To Ignore the Sales Pitch

Paul looks back at how “The Investor Coaching Show” began 25 years ago and the people, relationships, and lessons that helped shape its mission. From the beginning, the goal was to challenge the financial industry's sales-driven messages and provide investors with education grounded in academic research. Paul explains why much of what is presented as investing education is actually designed to persuade people to move their money — often benefiting the broker more than the investor. Listen along to hear why the principles behind confident investing have remained remarkably consistent throughout the show’s history.    Later in the show, Paul shares that you should avoid investment trackers that follow famous investors. These are just a sales pitch that are trying to use your instinct to go toward pleasure against you.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?
