Today, I’m speaking with Larry Swedroe. Larry is the former Chief Research Officer at Buckingham Strategic Wealth, an accomplished author with 18+ books on investing, and a true pioneer in evidence-based investing. He’s also a well-known advocate for cutting through the financial media noise to focus on strategies that actually work.

In Larry’s latest book, Enrich Your Future: The Keys to Successful Investing, he distills decades of financial wisdom into 40 powerful stories that make investing principles easy to understand and apply.

In our conversation, Larry shares the science behind behavioral finance and explains why most investors fall prey to emotional biases, media hype, and market timing traps. We also dive into why passive investing remains a leading strategy among investors, how to truly measure risk, and why a globally diversified portfolio beats stock-picking in the long run.
