- Don Outraged Anyone Would Challenge Him
Don often mentions his recommendations should be followed without question because he has been in finance for many many years. He fails to realize that when it comes to our life savings he needs to provide objective support for his recommendations, not just ‘trust what I say because I’m old.’ He often states that Bitcoin is bad because it has no value. For whatever reason he thinks folks with critical thinking skills should just accept his word and ignore the actual data that shows Bitcoin is ... more

United Statesa month ago - Host Is a One Trick Pony
The host demonstrates a commendable prowess in advocating for a well-balanced 60/40 portfolio, emblematic of traditional investment wisdom.

His adherence to antiquated principles impedes... more
Apple Podcasts1BoomerMeUnited Statesa month ago - Mostly excellent investing advice
Ray Dalio should follow Real Money. This is my favorite money podcast. Great technical and practical content. Don, the economics literature does not agree with your assessment of annuities. Go to google scholar and search "annuities". Be sure to look at recent papers. Tom, a 1% fee is a little steep for investment advice. Listen to 3 reasons you should choose a flat fee service at Big Picture Retirement. I also agree with your assessment of Bitcoin and crypto.

Apple Podcasts5NickNam eUnited Statesa month ago - Again, An Academic Said…
The host (Don) loves to cite academics when they support his thesis. According to Don, Burton Malkiel doesn’t believe in Bitcoin so no one should. What is the academics are wrong. Aren’t the academics teaching that we all NEED 2% inflation. What if that is a myth sold just to benefit the very special elites. As the value of our dollars decline through endless money printing, who benefits? Why is 2% the ideal inflation rate? What if 2% was chosen as that is as high as they can go without mass pro... more
