Avoiding Big Mistakes
This week's blogpost - https://bahnsen.co/4bTgiTx
One of the secrets to long-term financial success is avoiding big mistakes.
Big mistakes come in all different shapes and sizes, which is exactly what we will unpack today.
We will cover the consequences of concentration, panic, big losses, and what I like to call tax magic.
This should be a fun one, and I hope you won’t miss it.

The New Lost Decade
This week's blogpost - https://bahnsen.co/3QF5Zum
The decade from 2000-2009 included both the Dot-Com Bubble and the Global Financial Crisis (GFC). We call this the Lost Decade because it was a rare occurrence where stock investors experienced a negative return over a 10-year period.
This decade will live in infamy and will be the talk of countless financial books, newsletters, blogs, and white papers.
Today, I would like to unpack what I call the New Lost Decade, which we live in now. This topic doesn’t seem to be catching as much attention, but I will point out why this is so important to you as an investor. This has nothing to do with the stock market and everything to do with the bond market.
I hope you can join me today to discuss the New Lost Decade.

Goldie Rocks and The Permabears
This week's blogpost - https://bahnsen.co/3y08bG8
Let me ask you this, why did Goldilock’s parent allow her to wander alone in the forest?
It’s never a good idea to invade the space of a bear, especially not three of them.
I don’t want you wandering the forest of personal finance tabloids or hanging around permabears.
Join me as I unpack the history of gold and call into question some of the headlines that you might be seeing out there.

Customer Reviews
Easy to understand?
It’s a good thing I didn’t have a mouthful of coffee when you said David is easy to understand or I would’ve had a Will Swaim moment. Yes, he has a special vocabulary. I do best when I read his text rather than listen to his oral presentations. Keep up the good work.
Targeted to ultra high net worth
There are a few good nuggets of wisdom here and there. My main criticism is the target audience seems to be existing or potential clients, which in the grand scheme of things is a small population. Mainly high income, high net worth. Folks who have more money than they know what to do with. So far I have not heard much insight for people trying to establish a financial plan, buy a first home, or learn how to begin building wealth.
Great Stuff!!!
Appriciate Trevor's (and his guests) perspective on money and investing. Grounded and sound advice. Highly recommend........
