The Fat Wallet Show from Just One Lap

The Fat Wallet Show is a show about questions. It’s about admitting that we don’t know everything, but that we’re willing to learn. Most of all, it’s about understanding as much as we can to make us all better investors. Phrases like, “I’m not sure” or, “Let me look that up and get back to you” or, “I don’t know” don’t exist in the financial services industry. If you ever had a financial question you were too embarrassed to ask, you know what we’re talking about. In this business, appearances matter, and nobody wants to seem like they don’t know how things work or what the outlook is for the buchu industry. It’s easy to excuse that little vanity, except that people in the investment industry are meant to service investors - people like you and me who need to figure out what to do with our money. There’s no such thing as a stupid question in this show. If you have unanswered financial questions, this is your opportunity to have them answered in a way that even I can understand.

Getting to be great at money is like losing weight. Those who are successful at it don’t reach their goals because they perfectly stick to a plan. They are successful because they make more good decisions than bad ones over a long period.

We’ve long theorised that there are five financial concepts that underpin good financial decisions. We posit truly understanding these concepts will remove a lot of the uncertainty that often fuels financial decision-making. Taking the right variables into account, you will hopefully end up making more good choices than bad ones.

We discuss each of these concepts in this episode, but to recap, they are:

  1. Assets
  2. Interest
  3. Inflation
  4. Compounding
  5. Index-tracking products

In this bonus episode, we help one of our listeners solve a property dilemma by applying these parameters to his specific situation. Follow our line of thinking and see if you agree.
