Excellent Host, Great Podcast

Ed Mathews is a host who has in-depth understanding of the challenges beginner investors face - the typical hesitations and fears preventing them from taking the most crucial first step towards optimizing their financial lives. Ed is keen to the idea that each investor's first step is a unique set of actions, based on that person's money situation at the very moment he or she commits to building wealth. Excellent questions and insights, Ed! Thank you!
