Have you ever been told to "buy the dip" or keep investing through a downturn with "dollar cost averaging"? It’s the most common advice thrown around by financial advisors, but is it actually the smartest move for your money? In this episode of the Money Ripples Podcast, I (Chris Miles) reveal the truth behind this popular strategy and why it could be costing you big—especially as the markets enter a critical correction period in 2025.

With over 11 years of guiding people out of financial traps and into real freedom, I’m not here to give you mainstream advice, I’m here to expose it. Because let’s be honest: If dollar cost averaging worked so well, why are so many investors still broke or stressed out every time the market dips?

Here’s what we cover in today’s episode:

• Why the stock market is still dangerously overvalued—and what the Buffet Indicator is telling us
• The psychology behind “buying the dip” and why it's mostly a trap
• Real history: How long it actually takes for the market to recover after a crash
• Why dollar cost averaging is brilliant… for the banks and advisors—not you
• The problem with trusting AI-driven markets and emotional investing
• What Warren Buffett is doing differently with his $334.8 billion in cash
• Why I have ZERO money in the stock market—and where I invest instead
• What kind of assets actually create passive income and security in a recession
• How to prepare your cash and mindset for the opportunities ahead

For decades, the financial industry has made billions convincing us to "just keep investing" no matter what. But the truth is, most people don't have time to wait for the next bull market. You need financial freedom now, not in 30 years.

Whether you're nearing retirement, already retired, or just want to protect and grow your money faster, you’ll walk away from this episode with a whole new lens on investing and a clear action plan to start creating real, recession-resistant income.
