    Introducing: Pimp my Portfolio

    Introducing: Pimp my Portfolio

    Over on our sister podcast, Equity Mates Investing, we've launched a new segment called Pimp my Portfolio. In a nutshell, we're doing to investing portfolios what Xzibit did to cars (explainer for those not old enough to remember)
    We get a portfolio from the Equity Mates community, and put it in front of an expert to get their general advice on how the portfolio is constructed and what we could think about to improve it. By doing that we draw out some lessons that we can apply to our own portfolios.
    In this episode we feature two Pimp my Portfolio segments. We hope you enjoy.

I’m becoming a Financial Advisor

These guys have been absolutely amazing in helping me understand the stock market and investing world! I recently got an entry level job at an advisory firm, and have zero background about this kind of stuff. My company is paying for me to get licensed as a Financial Advisor, and the class is shockingly difficult. Listening to this podcast has helped me so much with getting a base-level of understanding so that I can actually follow what’s going on in my class. I always use the phrase “explain it to me like I’m 5 years old” when I’m learning something new, and I feel like Wren and Bryce do an amazing job of explaining complex things in a way that I can understand. Thank you guys, and keep this podcast going please!!

Good stuff!

Ren and Bryce make it fun to learn about the basics. Big fan of their corny jokes. Their series helped me find the courage to take the first step to investing for the future

Very informative!

These two make listening to finance a blast
