Market-Beating Guru Adds Another Strategy…With Index Funds This Time Financial literature is littered with scores of material claiming to show how average investors can beat the stock market.

How Your High School Let You Down
As a high school teacher at a great school, I have to admit that I have one major beef with most high school curriculums: they teach plenty of complicated ideas, but many of them won’t be useful to you when you’re older. They do a disservice to their students by avoiding some life enhancing concepts …

Something to think about… if you really can’t buy index funds – Part 2

Something to think about… if you really can’t buy index funds – Part 1
My friend, Jeff, can’t buy index funds. It has nothing to do with their lack of accessibility; he just can’t bring himself to do it. For him, beating 90 percent of professional investors isn’t enough. He wants to be in that top 10 percent. So far, he isn’t. Candid about his results, he says, “A …

Welcome! I’m Andrew Hallam
Many people aren't comfortable talking about money. It's not usually a conversational dinner-time topic, and its principles are rarely taught in schools. My goal is to have a "conversation" about it here, on this blog. If you read something you find intriguing, please comment or ask your questions!
I am also the author of the book: Millionaire Teacher: The Nine Rules of Wealth You Should Have Learned at School.
If you'd like to find out more about my investing philosophy, read my "Nine Laws to Financial Freedom."
