Investing often seems more complicated than needed, so we’re explaining some key terms to help you better navigate the investing and financial world more confidently. We share which ones we think matter the most and what you should focus on as an investor. 

Andrew joins this week’s podcast as we talk about:

- The difference between a stock and a bond and the historical performance of each

- The difference between ETFs, index funds, and mutual funds

- Market vs. limit orders and which one you should focus on

- Why target date funds in your 401K and 529 plans aren’t ideal and what to do instead

- Which brokerage firms and accounts we like the best and why

- Expense ratios, Dividends, Dollar-cost averaging, and more!
