Customer Reviews
Good Podcast. However, Bill Perkins is suspicious
He made a $600,000 bet with Dan Bilzerian that he could not ride from LA to LV in 48 hours. You should do more background work on him. He is not a good model for your audience.
Top Investing Podcast
Tom and Don have great show banter and are a genuinely great listen. I have listened since I was 25 and am confident their advice has helped me perfect my portfolio with a small
and value tilt. They are advocates for investors everywhere and have equipped their listeners with questions and knowledge to ensure they are receiving true fiduciary advice. I love that they bring in current events into their radio show and podcast only segments. Keep up the great work!
Phony Financial Advice
This show often promotes itself as providing sound financial advice. However, one of the show’s hosts advocates for the socialization of his daughter’s student loan debt to the rest of us. Not really very sound financial advice! I would have thought a show named “Talking Real Money” would lean a little more towards promoting personal financial responsibility. You won’t find that here
