Episode 100 of The Best Interest Podcast! This is a celebratory and reflective milestone featuring guest shout-outs, listener-favorite clips, and a discussion on the show's evolution. Jesse shares the podcast's origins, his journey from aerospace engineering to financial planning, and how the podcast nearly faded before finding renewed purpose in 2023. Throughout the episode, Joe Saul Sehy, Brian Feroldi, Paula Pant and other past guests are featured, shouting out The Best Interest and their own work, you'll certainly want to check out.  To celebrate, listeners wrote in with some of their favorite clips, including Jeremy Schneider's discussion with Jesse on his “7 Deadly Sins of Investing” from episode 70. Of course, Jesse's AMA's have been incredibly popular, so segments are featured from episodes 81 and 96 where Jesse answered questions about diversification, patience, and risk management.  Thanks, listeners, for supporting the podcast's first 100 episodes. We look forward to the future of "Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors."   Key Takeaways:• Relying solely on one asset class, such as large-cap U.S. stocks, increases risk and limits flexibility in different market conditions. • No asset class can outperform indefinitely; over time, returns tend to move back toward historical averages. • Holding international stocks can help balance risk, as different regions perform well at different times. • Just because a strategy has worked for years doesn't mean it will continue to do so; market conditions evolve. • As retirement nears, reducing portfolio volatility becomes more important, and diversifying helps protect against severe downturns. • The best strategy involves preparing for uncertainty, adjusting portfolios based on personal financial goals rather than chasing recent winners.   Key Timestamps:(03:43) Reflections on the Journey (15:15) Rebranding Announcement (19:44) Highlighting the Best Clips (38:53) The Importance of Indexing and Market Timing (40:52) Understanding the CAPE Ratio (45:12) The Risks of Timing the Market (51:45) Dollar Cost Averaging vs. Lump Sum Investing (54:42) Diversification: Why It Matters   Key Topics Discussed:The Best Interest, Jesse Cramer, Rochester New York, financial planner, financial advisor, wealth management, retirement planning, tax planning, personal finance, long term investors, Joe Saul Sehy, Brad Barrett, Nick Maggiulli, Justin Peters, Jeremy Schneider, Doug Cunnington, Joel Larsgaard, Paula Pant, andy Hill, Steve Adcock, Dan Otter, Brian Feroldi, episode 100, celebration, millionaire money habits   Mentions:Joe Saul Sehy: https://joesaulsehy.com/ Brad Barrett: https://choosefi.com/ Nick Maggiulli: https://ofdollarsanddata.com/ Justin Peters: https://www.tsirpodcast.com/ Jeremy Schneider: https://www.instagram.com/personalfinanceclub/?hl=en Doug Cunnington: https://milehighfi.com/ Joel Larsgaard: https://www.howtomoney.com/about-us/joel-larsgaard/ Paula Pant: https://affordanything.com/ Andy Hill: https://marriagekidsandmoney.com/about/ Steve Adcock: https://steveadcock.us/ Dan Otter: https://teachandretirerich.com/ Brian Feroldi: https://www.youtube.com/@BrianFeroldiYT    More of Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors:Check out the Best Interest Blog at bestinterest.blog Contact me at jesse@bestinterest.blog Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors is a personal podcast meant for educational and entertainment.

In this eye-opening rewind episode, we dive deep into the world of personal finance rules and their validity in light of compelling data-driven insights. Join us as we explore the thought-provoking concepts presented in Nick Maggiulli's acclaimed book, "Just Keep Buying."

In our second episode of 2025, Ben, Mark, and Dan continue to work through the listener questions we received in our 2024 AMA. We begin with home country biases and how to continue to grow your money from an already diversified portfolio before comparing the benefits of stock trading strategies and EFT portfolio strategies. Then, we discuss the impact of volatile blockchains on the wider securities market, whether you need to adjust your investment strategy when new tariffs are imposed, the ins and outs of terminal wealth management, the benefits of focusing on a total market index, and the personal finance perspective of renting versus buying in Canada. To end, we explore the best practices for increasing risk exposure, take a closer look at FIRE (financial impendence, retire early), assess investing behavioural biases and misconceptions that still pose a threat to even literate investors, and learn about how the Rational Reminder podcast is changing the lives of our listeners.

Join 10's of thousands of your fellow learning leaders and receive a carefully curated email from me each Monday morning to help you start your week off right... Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Twitter/IG: @RyanHawk12   https://twitter.com/RyanHawk12 What's the Matthew Effect? The Matthew effect explains how two people can start in nearly the same place and end up worlds apart. In these kinds of systems, initial conditions matter. And as time goes on, they matter more and more. Instead of saving a fixed percentage of your income, save more when you earn more and less when you make less. The best way to save more is to earn more, not cut expenses to the point of being miserable. The real question money forces us to answer is what's important to us in life. You should save what you can, when you can. Relying on a fixed, prescribed savings rate is nonsense. The Dolly Varden trout, an Alaskan fish species, puzzled biologists for decades. Despite only having a brief window of plentiful food each year — when salmon laid eggs in their waters — the fish continued to thrive year-round. How did they do it? Eventually, scientists discovered that the fish shrink and grow their digestive organs depending on food availability. When the salmon show up, they speed up their metabolism so they can take in more calories. Then, when the other fish leave, they slow down digestion. This way, they get by with much less food throughout the remainder of the year. Great Things Take Time – Focusing on the long term is more important than ever. The story of the “Dashrath Manjhi Breakthrough” – He carved a path through a mountain. He moved a little bit of rock each day for 20 years. Nick committed to writing one blog per week in 2017. And it changed his life. He learned that storytelling is what captures a reader's attention. And the way to develop good stories is to read a lot, from a wide variety of sources. We all can do this. One decision can change everything. NASA decided that Voyager 2 would slingshot around planets has made it the farthest man-made object from Earth. And it's still producing information for us. The Constant Reminder – How the Right Decisions and Compounding Can Lead to Huge Results. How have the decisions made by NASA 40 years ago had a profound effect on the Voyager missions and success to this day? Once a successful process is implemented, the results can be surprising. The point is to show you that making the right choices and letting things run their course can lead to incredible results. This is what makes consistent actions and the power of compounding so amazing. "When I think about creating a new habit in my life, I like to imagine all of the future benefits from that habit discounted back to the moment when the habit is formed."
