Winning with Money

In this episode, Mike goes in depth about the dangers of risk and how to manage and mitigate these risks while investing. 

He covers this topic in four areas:  Lack of Knowledge Risk, Stock Market Risk, Portfolio Risk and Scam Risk. In his recap he also explains risk tolerance and risk capacity and how important it is to know about those areas and why even with all these risks, the best place to build wealth is in the stock market.

Mike is looking for recommendations for future topics to grow his podcast and to reach a broader audience. If you like what you're hearing and want to hear more, please share this with your friends and family and let him know your feedback by sending him an email at:

In this episode, Mike opens up a new chapter in his podcast by starting an "Investing Basics Series" to help investors of all stripes get a good foundation on what investing is and how to do it with success. 
 
Six key takeaways from today's episode:

1. Get educated, establish a plan that includes short and long term goals and enlist the help of an advisor where needed.

2. Save and invest early and often. It's the time in the market, not market timing that will help you build wealth.

3. Put your investments on paycheck withdrawal auto pilot, so you can enjoy the advantages of dollar cost averaging.

4. Keep your costs low by investing in Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) when possible.

5. Diversify between stock and bond funds. Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

6. Rebalance your allocations to avoid getting  too over weighted in any asset classes  to reduce risk. 

Have a great day!

In this episode, Mike helps you dream big about being a millionaire and how to become one if you choose to. He talks about two books on this subject: Everyday Millionaires by Chris Hogan and the Next Millionaire Next Door by the father and daughter team of Dr. Thomas Stanley and Dr. Sarah Stanley Fallaw. Both books unpack the interesting insights into the lifestyles, behaviors and jobs held by the typical millionaire today. 

Mike uncovers some common myths, facts and statistics about how millionaires became millionaires. Some of these findings may surprise you! He also shares his thoughts about the importance of a good quality of life, having a plan to reach your goals and not comparing yourself to others based on money.
