Paul explains how you can move from worrying about the headlines to truly relaxing about money.   Later in the episode, Paul talks about the rise and decline of plant-based meat companies, and an investor he remembers being all in on these companies.

Evan shares a few rules about Trump Accounts that have come out recently. Paul segues to an interview where the Robinhood CEO is pressed about an obviously dangerous investment that the SEC is shutting down. His response was, “People should be free to do what they want.” Paul pushes back hard to remind investors that this product is hurting investors and would be the equivalent of a drug dealer making the same comment about a drug that is killing the people who take it.    Later in the episode, Paul talks about the importance of teaching your kids about money and investing because the wealth you built through discipline can disappear if your heirs don't understand how to manage it.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Over the last week, we've heard many stories and predictions that remind us of events that have happened in the Middle East in recent history. When the news gets this big, even the most disciplined investors are tempted to respond to current events and make an emotional investing decision. Today, Paul and Evan read an article arguing that a real democratic revolution in Iran seems impossible until it happens. Listen along as these two advisors share why making investment decisions based on current events is a trap and how confident investors are humble enough to live with uncertainty, avoid market timing, and emerge on the other side.   Later in the episode, Evan discusses his research on the worst wars of the last 100 years and the market growth that occurred during those years, asking, “What happened to the people who went to cash knowing that war was coming?” Evan and Paul want you to know that people who are trying to get you out of the market right now don't understand how wars affect companies.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Paul brings Jim Wood on the show to discuss the current climate and why it leaves investors vulnerable to people taking advantage of them. In a world where threats of war, a 24-hour financial news cycle, and an industry full of market timers dominate, investors are in danger of getting pushed into their emotions and then making changes that make the market makers money. Paul tells investors they don't need an investing club to get ahead; they need a Nobel Prize-winning method that helps them reach their goals. Later in the episode, Paul talks about an important conversation you can have with your spouse to help you both feel more confident about your finances.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Paul and Jim share a somewhat funny take in MarketWatch from an investor who is all over the place, but actually represents many people who are still trying to beat markets and be “good” at investing. Listen along as these two investors talk about how markets go up during recessions and why being a good investor isn't about looking at all the news and trying to get your money in the right place at the right time. Later in the episode, Jim shares four signs to watch out for to avoid getting scammed out of a lot of money. Always remember, “If it sounds like it's too good to be true, it probably is.”   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Paul and Jim discuss the news in Iran and its unfolding developments. Listen along as these two advisors cover why uncertainty, war, and changing prices aren't necessarily signs of market decline. How should your portfolio perform during a decline? Paul and Jim answer these questions and try to give you a bigger picture and possible positive outcomes that the media will never talk about. Paul and Jim talk about a veteran who wants to give their child a chance at a better financial future and wants to know if a Roth IRA is a good option. The advisors discuss the benefits of a Roth IRA and what they would walk through as an advisor before recommending a Roth IRA, 529 plan, or a non-qualified account. Later in the show, Paul and Jim discuss Trump Accounts and whether or not you should take advantage of the free $1,000 for new family members.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

It has been a big week for headlines with the joint attacks in Iran, leaving many investors questioning how this might affect markets and gas prices in the short term. News this significant makes investors ask, “What am I supposed to do?” Paul and Jim give their honest take on the current events in Iran and discuss some misconceptions about wartime and markets. Listen along as Paul teaches how war has historically affected markets and why war and downturns aren't actually as dangerous to your retirement as market timing and reacting to the news.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Evan talks about how McDonald's discovered that most of their milkshakes were sold before 10 a.m., which sparked a heavily sold product that keeps many businesses running: the frozen coffee beverage. Listen along as Paul and Evan discuss how flexible and dynamic businesses can be and why trying to pick the winners out of the crowd has proved to be a bad tactic for investors. Later in the episode, Paul and Evan talk about private equity and why the industry seems to only focus on the upside: because it makes the industry a lot of money. Evan encourages investors to exchange the word “private” with “unregulated” and consider whether you want to put your money in unregulated equities.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Bitcoin drops 40%, but proponents try to claim that volatility is decreasing. Paul and Evan discuss the fundamental issue with trading a commodity that lacks a practical application in the world and competes with one of the most stable forces globally: the U.S. dollar. Listen along as these two advisors share a CNBC interview that's working hard to spin some sort of upside to this investment. Later in the episode, Paul talks about how investments get priced and how this affects Bitcoin's limited supply.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Most diversified portfolios are not just even amounts of U.S. and international holdings. It's more nuanced than that. Over the last few months, we've seen pundits who for years have encouraged investors to only own large U.S. companies but are now pushing international stocks because they have been outperforming the U.S. for a while. Paul and Evan remind you that confident investors don't rely on past performance and news cycles to make investing decisions. Later in the episode, Paul talks about an investor who called the office this week to ask about a specific financial product.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Paul chatted with a curious young investor this week who was eager to share what he was investing in and ask for some constructive feedback. Listen along as Paul and Evan talk about showing investors the funds that have overlapping stocks and don't offer more diversification. Paul and Evan share how this young investor was trying to follow the fundamentals of investing, but some of the most popular products in the industry aren't designed to follow them.

Many fund companies love to tout the strength of their technical analysis. They claim to have market experts poring over company books to see what should be in your portfolio and what should be out. Today, Paul shares a clip of a technical analyst really showing their lack of basic investment knowledge. Paul encourages you not to tie up your retirement with people who claim to be experts at market timing but ignore the basic rules of investing. Later in the episode, Paul discusses how younger people are being taught to view investing as entertainment, as predatory companies target the most active investors, encourage people to engage in “predictive markets” (aka gambling), and turn earnings reports into NFL-like post-game interviews.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Imagine your house falling apart before your mortgage is even up. Unfortunately, this could become a reality for many homeowners. Homes are being built faster, bigger, and with lower-quality materials than they were 50 years ago. Today, Paul shares the devastating consequences when builders cut corners using materials and methods that aren't built to last and homeowners don't do their due diligence. Later in the episode, Paul does the work for you and looks through the disclosures Yrefy hides at the end of their TV ad. The disclosures clearly state that the investments are high-risk and untradeable, and liquidity is not guaranteed — even though the ad says otherwise. Paul warns, “Read the fine print yourself.” You won't regret it.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Today, Paul shares an interview with the Edward Jones head of investment strategy, where she's pressed about the lackluster performance of the area of the market most of their investors are in: large U.S. companies. She finally admits that they are still “feeling good” about the U.S. economy, but now might be a good time to consider diversifying in smaller companies and international companies. Paul and Evan are pretty shocked that a Harvard Business School graduate, who helps millions of investors, would so blatantly tell investors to buy based on past performance and then call it diversification.     Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Today, Paul and Evan answer a listener's questions about Trump Accounts and how the investments get managed.

Today, Paul and Evan talk about the catastrophic drop in Bitcoin's value and why Bitcoin traders keep digging their heels in, hoping for a brighter future. Listen along as these two advisors share how personal bias and financial news spin keep this risky digital commodity that few people understand alive through hectic bouts of demands and sell-offs. Later in the episode, Paul discusses a refinancing company called Yrefy that is paying media personalities to push a product that sounds nice, but the numbers don't add up. Paul cautions that if it sounds too good to be true, it is.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

This week, Paul has been methodically taking you through the basic principles of building a portfolio that will help you reach your goals. We've looked at how cash, bonds, and stocks work together to minimize risk and talked about why picking high-yield bonds and individual stocks opens you up to non-systematic risk (aka risk you wouldn't get compensated for). Today, Paul discusses the final step in building a portfolio: letting your time horizon be the determining factor in where you allocate the money in your investments.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Paul shares a clip this morning that shows just how low the standard is for what financial media views as “credible” investing information.

When most people buy a car, they take on a substantial car payment. But how long does the high of having a nice new ride really last? Today, Paul discusses why government intervention in making cars easier to buy has historically led to chaotic markets and other economic issues. Listen along as Paul explains why it's difficult to really meaningfully change your level of happiness through things like new car purchases and how you can start to chart a course forward where the things in your life support your sense of purpose, instead of you spending your time and money working off things that don't bring you joy. Later in the episode, Paul addresses a listener who is curious about when you should start building up assets in a non-qualified account instead of a pre-tax account.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Today, Paul brings in a WSJ article that provides a list of potential events this year that could weaken the dollar against other world currencies. Paul wants confident investors to remember that you shouldn't change your plan based on what may or may not happen in the future. Then, Paul explains why a weaker dollar isn't always a bad thing for the U.S. economy, and why investors who follow the industry are more likely to be hurt by a weakening dollar. Later in the episode, would it be helpful for people to tap their 401(k) for a down payment on a home? Paul covers an article about a Trump administration plan to borrow from yourself to buy a house, and discusses the unseen risks of removing money that is making compound interest for something you need now.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

When Paul first started this show, indexing and target-date funds were not very popular at all, as the world experienced a decade where large U.S. companies struggled to generate any returns for investors. Fast forward another decade, and indexing and target date funds are now all the rage as investors believe that “indexing” is synonymous with great returns, low fees, and wealth in retirement. Indexing may sound like diversification, but Paul explains what really happens when millions of investors choose this path for their portfolios. Later in the episode, Paul shares where fund companies make the biggest mistakes with indexing and provides a blueprint for capturing market returns that won't leave you overweight in a few companies.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Paul runs into an annuity salesperson on Facebook who reveals that he made $300,000 in income in his first month and wasn't remotely interested in helping people, but in showing off his skills to his peers. So, where does caring for clients fit into most of these sales? Paul shares the four steps people use to sell these products that you can look out for, and why it's just not possible to trust high-commission products salespeople to look out for you when their companies are pushing them to produce sales.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

We often discuss being a confident investor on the show, but confidence is only helpful if it's combined with a disciplined, evidence-based approach rather than behaviors such as market timing or individual stock selection. Today, Paul shares an ad for Jim Cramer's investing club that he saw on CNBC, where a client claims she is confident and finally “in control” of her investments. The ad reveals that Jim teaches people to “win at investing” through market timing and stock picking. Paul and Evan explain why you shouldn't follow someone who offers club memberships and provides stock-picking advice.

durée : 00:22:00 - Les Nuits de France Culture - En 1961, le journaliste Philippe Réal proposait aux auditeurs de la Chaîne Parisienne une enquête sur la presse jeunesse française avec René Goscinny, qui a créé le journal "Pilote" en 1959 et Paul Winkler du "Journal de Mickey", lancé en France en 1952. Ils ont entre quatre et treize ans, garçons et filles. Ils s'appellent Stéphane, Nathalie, Laurent ou Catherine. Leurs points communs ? Ils sont tous des lecteurs du journal Mickey, Tintin, Spirou ou Pilote et connaissent parfaitement les héros de leurs temps : Astérix, Michel Tanguy, le Petit Nicolas ou Donald Duck. * Même si tous ces jeunes gens aiment lire ces histoires amusantes, ils confessent timidement au micro du journaliste, poursuivre la lecture des "gros livres" des bibliothèques, comme ceux de Jules Verne ou de la Comtesse de Ségur, les romans policiers ou les livres de la Bibliothèque verte. Au cours de cette enquête sur la presse jeunesse, des responsables de journaux d'enfants témoignent : "L'enjeu est de proposer de nouveaux journaux, qui répondent aux goûts des enfants de notre temps", confie René Goscinny, créateur du journal Pilote en 1959.  Pour Paul Winkler, journaliste et éditeur, qui a lancé en 1952 Le Journal de Mickey en France, (tirage à 500 000 exemplaires), il y a ce désir de "partager le climat particulier de Walt Disney, où règne une atmosphère de bonne humeur et d'optimisme". Un journal, précise-t-il, qui intéresse aussi bien les jeunes que les adultes. Une information qui ne contredira pas les dires de ce père de famille trentenaire, interrogé au cours de cette émission, qui prend soin de surveiller les lectures de ses enfants, tout en savourant discrètement des magazines pour la jeunesse, avec "des aventures de cow-boys ou de fusils".
