Equipping Points:
In movies, there are all-time classic villains like Darth Vader or the Wicked Witch of the West. When it comes to the financial world, what kind of villains should you look out for? Just like some of these cinematic villains, some of these financial elements may have a bit of nuance and history that can make it hard to label them all good or all bad. For instance, the stock market has brought on good times and bad times. You need to find a way to harness those forces for your success.
We talk through the different tools you might be able to use and consider what kind of value a financial advisor brings. When you are determining something as important as your financial future, you want to have someone who specializes in it to help you achieve your goals.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
- The stock market can be a force for good or for bad.
- People can get overly fixated on fees.
- Technology is great, but it isn’t everything.
