Shawn O'Malley - We Study Markets | Vanity Investing

When too much Shawn is never enough. Here's part 2 of our chat. The highlight for me in this episode is the trap of vanity investing. It's when people talk about their investments as a way of showing how sophisticated they are. It's about bragging rights and commanding authority over the mere mortals who only want to invest in the boring old S&P500. We Study Markets is part of The Investor's Podcast Network, the home of the hugely popular We Study Billionaires podcast.This is part 2 of a 2 part interview with Shawn.
