All Things Investing

Most investing guides are written for employees. They assume a steady paycheck, an HR department, an automatic 401(k) deduction, and an employer matching your contributions. If you're a freelancer, none of that applies — and the standard advice falls flat fast.

In this episode, we give you the wealth-building guide written specifically for the self-employed. The one that accounts for irregular income, self-employment taxes, no...

What if you could guarantee that a specific amount of money hits your bank account every single month for the rest of your life — no matter how long you live, no matter what the stock market does, no matter what happens to interest rates?

That guarantee exists. It's called a lifetime income annuity. And it's the only financial product in existence that can make that promise with contractual certainty. No index fund, no dividen...

Growth investing sounds simple — buy companies that are growing faster than the market and watch your wealth build. But most beginners make the same costly mistakes before they ever discover what growth investing actually means, how to implement it properly, and why the fund that grew most last year is statistically likely to be next year's underperformer.

In this episode, we give you the beginner's blueprint for growth invest...

Here's the number that should make every investor uncomfortable: the most active traders underperform passive investors by 6-7% annually. Not because they pick bad stocks. Not because they have bad information. Because of behavioral biases they don't even know they have.

The enemy isn't the market. It's the decision-maker sitting in front of the screen.

In this episode, we go deep on the five most destructive behavioral biases in inv...

Traditional investing asks which sector looks undervalued or which region offers growth. Thematic investing asks a completely different question: which forces are reshaping the world — and which companies stand to gain?

That single mindset shift is driving one of the biggest trends in modern investing. US thematic funds grew from $9.7 billion to $92.7 billion between 2014 and 2024. And in 2026, with mega-trends like AI infrast...

What if your losing investments could actually save you money? Not in some complicated hedge fund strategy — but in a straightforward, IRS-approved approach that any investor with a brokerage account can use before December 31?

That's tax-loss harvesting. And in this episode, we break it down in the clearest, most practical terms possible so you can decide whether it belongs in your investing toolkit this year.

Here's the core ...

What if you could earn a 6% target return on your money, have it credited to your account daily, and withdraw it anytime you need it — all with a minimum investment of just €1?

That's the promise of Go & Grow, formerly Bondora Go & Grow, and in this episode we give you the honest, balanced beginner's guide to understanding exactly what it is, how it works, and most importantly — what the risks are that the market...

Most retirement investors spend decades focused on growing their portfolio — and almost no time thinking about the one risk that could undo everything in the first few years of retirement. It's called sequence of returns risk, and it may be the most important concept in retirement planning that most people have never heard of.

Here's the scenario that makes it real. Two retirees both start with $1 million and use a 4% withdraw...

Bitcoin started 2026 above $90,000. By mid-year it had fallen to the low $60,000s. That's a 33% drop in a matter of months — and it's exactly the kind of move that separates investors who understand what they own from those who panic and sell at the worst possible moment.

In this episode, we give you the honest, balanced beginner's guide to Bitcoin investing that most crypto content refuses to provide. No hype, no doom —...

The IRS puts a lock on the Roth IRA for high earners — but there's a completely legal two-step key that bypasses it entirely. It's called the Backdoor Roth IRA, and in 2026 it's more valuable than ever.

In this episode, we break down the Backdoor Roth IRA strategy from the ground up — what it is, who needs it, how to execute it correctly, and the critical mistake that trips up most people who try it for the first time.

He...

What if building a world-class investment portfolio required exactly three decisions — and then almost no decisions after that?

That's the promise of the three-ETF blueprint — one of the most powerful, most evidence-backed, and most underappreciated investing strategies available to everyday investors. And in this episode, we break it down in the simplest possible terms so you can implement it this week.

The strategy is e...

What if there was an investment account that gave you a tax deduction when you put money in, let your money grow completely tax-free, and then allowed you to take it out tax-free too? No catch, no fine print, no income limits?

That account exists. It's called a Health Savings Account — and 87% of people who have one are using it completely wrong.

In this episode, we reveal why the HSA is arguably the most powerful tax-advantage...

Here's a question most investors never think to ask: are you actually diversified, or just concentrated in a way that feels diversified?

If you own the S&P 500, you might think you're spread across 500 companies. But the S&P 500 is now more than 35% technology, with Nvidia alone making up 8% of the entire index. That's not diversification — that's concentration hiding in plain sight. And most beginner investors have no...

Here's a fact that should make every investor uncomfortable: retail investors spend an average of just 6 minutes researching a stock before buying it. Not 6 hours. Not 6 days. Six minutes. And yet most of those same investors will confidently tell you they make rational, well-researched decisions with their money.

The uncomfortable truth is that the biggest threat to your investment portfolio isn't the stock market, the Federal Rese...

Most people think real estate investing means buying expensive properties with huge down payments — and that belief alone stops millions of beginners from ever getting started. The truth is very different.

In this episode, we break down the small property blueprint — a practical, accessible approach to real estate investing that starts with the smallest asset that generates positive cash flow from day one and builds from...

In this episode, we walk you through a practical 19-step roadmap to wealth that takes you from financial ground zero all the way to long-term investment confidence. No shortcuts, no get-rich-quick promises — just a structured, sequential plan that millions...

AI investing apps are everywhere in 2026 — but most beginners have no idea there are actually two completely different types, and picking the wrong one for your situation could cost you years of progress.

In this episode, we cut through the confusion and give you a practical, honest guide to mastering AI investing apps as a beginner. No hype, no sales pitch — just a clear breakdown of what these tools actually do, which ...

What if the most powerful wealth-building strategy available to you right now is so simple, so quiet, and so unspectacular that most people dismiss it without a second thought?

In this episode, we reveal the quiet magic of small weekly investments — and we do it with real numbers that will genuinely surprise you.

Here's the thing about $25 a week: it doesn't feel like much. It's a takeaway coffee and a sandwich. It's a streamin...

What would you do with 30k a month? Most people would spend it. The wealthy few would invest it — and the difference between those two choices, compounded over 20 or 30 years, is the difference between financial freedom and financial stress.

In this episode, we build a practical, step-by-step wealth blueprint for young investors — whether 30k represents your monthly income, your annual savings target, or simply the minds...
