In tonight's show, I found a great research article highlighting a very commonplace name company, Dollar General. I highlight all the great things the company is doing, both now and for the future, and how all their fundamentals check the box, with an annualized 20% return. WOW 20% Yes!

In tonight's show, we'll focus on a learning topic of money myths and why they should all be de-bunked. I'll walk through topics of how not all debt is bad, it's never too early to get started, and how to establish good saving habits will set you on a course for success. My main takeaway is it can all be done for as little as $50 monthly

Facebook in the news again for...Antitrust lawsuits & privacy issues. But, the bigger thing in tonight's show is how to use a stock screener to take advantage of these dips in the market with all the tariff news. Make some money, that's what tonight's show is about to get moving in the right direction.

Jeez, why can't those trade wars just get settled? Trump has kept up with tariffs and demands and the market just keeps going in a seesaw fashion every other day and week. How to respond?

To make it easier, tonight I'll go over a strategy to "set it and forget it" Ronco style. That style is called the 401k portfolio by using four basic ETFs in Fidelity's plaform that will trade commission free:

ITOT - all shares 500 S&P ETF

HDV - high dividend ETF

FUTY - utility ETF

IJJ - mid cap value ETF

Scale into any amount with these four positions and you'll be happy in the coming years with low risk, dividends, and stable growth.

The sell off intensifies! The market sell off continued for the second straight week and presented fantastic buying opportunities. Apple and Amazon are down 10% in a week like most names. I'd take a look at some of these and names I love like GTT and STLD to take advantage down the rown.

Also, I talked about two other strategies like:

- Shorting the market with reverse ETFs

- Indicators of a possible recession and how to track it to prepare

The market is in panic over the recent news about trade wars and tarriffs imposed by President Trumpt. As a result, the stock market is down over 1,000 points in two days. Don't panic. Get excited, this is Christmas in May to buy some of your favorite names at a discount. Tonight, I'll go over two names (GTT and STLD) and why I like them long term.

In the latest episode, I'll dive into how the mock portfolios have performed since 2015 in the book Investing Should Be Easy. The book provided three mock portfolios, and one return alone was over 50%, that's amazing! Also, I'll tackle APIs as an investment idea and some stock picks grabbed from Fortune magazine where I found really good research. Stay tuned for more on this topic!
