The Rational Reminder Podcast Ep. 29 – Clearing Up the Holiday Back-Up: Podcast Housekeeping and Round Up

Is the market too hot or too cold for your temperament? Is it time to dive back in or dodge back out?

I am proud to announce that starting this year, my PWL Capital team will be the title sponsor for a series of events culminating with the Business Women of the Year Awards (BYAs) gala in April 2019.

Today on the podcast we are very excited to welcome Brad Steiman who is the Canadian Head of Financial Advisor Services for Dimensional!

Alas, all good things must come to an end. Today, I wrap our “Best of” series by revisiting one of our most important NDQ videos to date. When it comes to your investments, do you ever find yourself wondering something like, “Hey, what have they got that I haven’t?” If so, beware.

In the first episode of the Rational Reminder Podcast for 2019, we welcome Robin Powell. Robin is a journalist and content creator who has dedicated the more recent part of his career to helping spread the word on research backed investing and turning the tide on the history of investment advice.

As we continue with our “Best of No Dumb Questions” series, there’s one question I don’t think we can repeat too often: How can you tell whether the advice you’re receiving is in YOUR best financial interest?
