In this episode of the Transformational Wealth Podcast, host Marc Henn is joined by Bruce Mason, Director of Research and Trading at Harvest Financial Advisors, for a practical discussion on paper assets—one of the five super asset classes from Marc's book, "Power Plays of the Wealthy." 

Marc and Bruce share their unique paths into finance and explain foundational investment concepts, comparing fundamental analysis (evaluating a company’s financial health) with technical analysis (assessing stock price patterns). They highlight why a clear, research-driven process is essential and caution listeners against emotional pitfalls like chasing “hot” stocks or reacting to short-term market swings.

The conversation underscores the value of starting to invest early and leveraging the power of compounding.
