    527 lessons from 50 years of investing (with a retired GP!)

    In this episode we pick the brain of Dr Ken who is a retired GP and part of the original FI movement. He has been a clinician and a patient investor over 50 years and has built a large portfolio. We discuss his medical and financial journey, and touch on some valuable lessons along the way. I also ask him about the controversial Div 296 tax and have his take on it, as he will be affected by that tax. This one should not be missed. Ken's recommended reads: About investing for life goals - The Aspirational Investor by Ashvin Chhabra: https://amzn.to/3I92St3 Lecture on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Oe5zbOVDzMo?si=DojiE3N4sdK27qeC Great advice for aspiring investors - How a Second Grader Beats Wall Street by Allan Roth: https://amzn.to/44kJceJ Big picture on investing - The Birth of Plenty by William J Bernstein: https://amzn.to/3GmYExw Investing cautionary tales - Devil Take the Hindmost by Edward Chancellor: https://amzn.to/44HPrZZ Dev Raga Personal Finance is proudly supported by Sphere Home Loans and Skye Wealth.
