About this listen
What if the majority of common investing advice is wrong?
Feel like the generic advice you follow on investing isn't working? Feel like you're going nowhere? Not doing enough? Missing out on something? While others seem to be making easy money?
This is not far from the truth. Much of the conventional wisdom around investing is wildly outdated and short-sighted. Some great examples are:
- Bonds are safer than stocks
- 100 minus your age is how much you should have in stocks
- Roth IRAs build more wealth
- Investing in foreign stocks makes foreign companies richer
- Socially responsible investments promote the social responsibility cause
- Index funds always outperform
- Older advisors are better
- Politics affect the markets
- Gold will save you in the apocalypse
- The market is efficient
Everyone of these is terribly wrong, and following this advice will cost you greatly in the long-run. This book debunks all these myths and shows you what to do instead.
Having been a financial planner for some of the biggest firms in the business, Cairo Copeland has worked with thousands of clients to overcome these limiting beliefs and get investment plans that promote the end goal of financial freedom. This book presents the 27 most common, false beliefs that he needed to deprogram his clients from falling for.
Written for the new investor, void of jargon, and without the pretentious style most financial advice books use, this book is the best place to start your investing journey.

Story
When Carol Loomis first mentioned a little-known Omaha hedge-fund manager in a 1966 Fortune article, she didn’t dream that Warren Buffett would one day be considered the world’s greatest investor - nor that she and Buffett would become close personal friends. Now Loomis has collected and updated the best Buffett articles Fortune published between 1966 and 2012, including thirteen cover stories and a dozen pieces authored by Buffett himself. Loomis has provided commentary about each major article that supplies context and her own informed point of view.

Story
Best-selling author Ken Fisher here explains how investor's memories play (often costly) tricks on them. Fisher takes aim at some major market memory mishaps, like the idea that stocks have become inherently more volatile or that wildly above - or below - average returns are abnormal. He shows how, early in every recovery, investors don’t believe in it - often at a huge cost. And he shows how, in investing, ideology is deadly. Most important, he explains how you can use history as a powerful investing tool.
