For summer’s final Mailbag, a listener shares how he dropped sports betting and picked up investing, while another wants to know how to allocate portfolios as a Rule Breaker. David brings back Motley Fool Chief Investment Officer, Andy Cross, to discuss tools for tracking your portfolio against the S&P 500, thinking briefly about dividend allocation, then answering the question, “If you were investing your first $1,000 today, what would your approach be?” Those gems, along with Author in August Sam Horn—like a river—running through it!
