If you walk away with one big idea from this conversation, let it be this quote from Brian’s book: “The stock market is the greatest wealth creation machine of all time.”

Brian started investing in 2004. In the beginning, he had no idea what he was doing and got his teeth kicked in. His returns improved dramatically as his experience and knowledge about the stock market grew.

Brian’s career mission statement is “to demystify the stock market.” He loves to help other people do better with their investments. He has written over 3,000 articles on stocks, investing, and personal finance for the Motley Fool.

In 2022, Brian’s best-selling book Why Does The Stock Market Go Up? was published. It was written to explain how the stock market works in plain English.

Brian lives in New England with his wife and three kids.
