    People will say “Oh, why don’t they teach us financial literacy or how to be successful”? It’s simple, why would your enemy teach you how to conquer them?

    Brilliant talk. She focuses on having a clear idea of value rather than simply counting dollars and cents, which I think is a great approach.

    She starts off strong then just paraphrases the same info over and over with some boasting mixed in. Nothing useful as to how to actually start trading, just some fanciful notion that anyone can do it because she did

    Trading is not a viable alternative for most or even the mayority of people to making money. Indeed, most people lose money on trading. Save, invest in and etf and forget.

    I'm surprised this is such an unpopular talk. What she says is very TED and she's right: we could all do with more financial education.

    Plus it's not a book plug – I may have missed it, but she doesn't mention her book anywhere.

  • @jesseelmore3372

    Good 3 books are
    1. A simple path to wealth by Jim Collins
    (setting up a delayed series of staggered returns using broad based, low expense index funds)

    2. The intelligent investor by Benjamin Graham
    (Building the skill set to choose individual stocks)

    3. Rich dad poor dad by Robert kiyosaki
    (It's a good starter book. It's teaches to look for opportunities)

    Namaste

    Investing in IPO’s is one way in which investors can grow their money well.

    For instance when Amazon floated an IPO, each share was priced at $18. It currently

    Trades at $3100.

    Thanks

    Building wealth is not rocket science! Forget day trading stocks because its much to high risk. Instead, invest just $8/day (or $2920 once per year) into the S&P index (annualized return is 16.76% when you include average S&P gains + dividends reinvested + annual deposits of $2920 with inflation adjustments) and in 40 years you will amass $8.4M in wealth or $3.87M in today's dollars at 2% inflation. Just make your deposits every year and just sit on and HOLD ON TO EVERY SINGLE SHARE (no matter what is going on with the stock market). Then watch the power of compounding interest with the stock market doubling it value every 6-8 years, and where your $1M grows to $2M, $4M, $8M, $16M in a little as 24 years (without lifting a single finger).

    The fact that Schools don’t teach about money is intentional. If they taught everyone about Money they wouldn’t have enough employees to serve them.. too many people would become financially independent, who would serve them their meals and make their beds?.

    Remember every time one person sells and makes a profit, another buys who may soon end up
    losing money. The path to long term wealth comes through buying income producing assets at good prices and keeping them for a long time, and not buying stuff you do not need.

    We need this conversation now more than ever. The language of money creates a sense of not belonging, it creates a divide. There’s a need for more simple, plain language in the industry to make financial literacy accessible to all. Great talk!

    I would have to say this to cryptocurrency traders who are willing to accumulate as many coin right now, because i believe this is the opportunity we all have been waiting for. Only holders would suffer and cry if they refuse to trade and take advantage of the recent increase in btc price. My advice to all bitcoin traders out there is to buy bitcoin now and trade with the best signal to accumulate as much as you can, most of all seek a professional trading guide from a mentor Mr Carlos Kingston. I've made a significant increase in my portfolio since I started trading with kingston daily signals which has been profitable to me. With his strategy/signals I have been able to grow 1.2btc to 7.4btc in just 5 days by trading using his daily signals. Mike’s daily signals are very accurate and always yields a great positive return on investment and is always available to give a helping hand on instergram @carlos_1uptrades on how to trade profitablly

    Her three takeaways are:
    1. It’s a language you don’t know
    2. You can spend your last week’s profits on a cup of coffee…congrats on the effort!
    3. It’s a skill…you don’t have.

    There's literally nothing in this talk that helped move me forward. Not one concrete step or suggestion. This is the kind click bait title designed to sucker you in, and then serve you platitudes that amount to nothin. That is 12 mins of your life you are NEVER going to get back
