  • My favorite podcast

    Love this podcast and Michael’s insights. In fact it’s my favorite and I listen to a dozen different podcasts, mostly financial ones. Been a Pro member since last Aug (great weekly reports and portfolio alerts) and plan to be a lifelong member. Michael has earned my trust. And I’m 66 btw.
