The issue is people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt. Ideally, advisors are reps for investing jobs, and at first-hand encounter, my portfolio has yielded over 300% since 2020 just after the pandemic to date.

Absolutely fantastic video. I have met so many financial advisors over the years who all started with the investments. No one mentioned goals! This is the first time I have heard how financial advice should be delivered and how it adds value. Thankfully I stayed clear of those advisors, documented my own goals and plan, and got on with it myself. However, I can attest that it is time consuming and it is difficult to get out of the 'inside view'. Doing it alone takes significant commitment and awareness of your own biases.

The inside view reminds me of Buffett describing how Charles Darwin any time he came across something that ran counter to his existing views wrote it down because he knew the mind had a natural tendency to suppress the information otherwise. Awesome video as always. When I was tasked with finding training materials for a fledgling support team at a FinTech startup Ben Felix was on the short list.

[@lyingcorrectly]

Excellent video. "Enough" can be surprisingly little. My monthly expenses are well below both the national average income and my income, and there is nothing money can buy that would further increase my happiness. I rent an inexpensive but beautiful apartment in the city I love, work only 35h/week in a fun job, and never have to worry about where the next meal will come from, or how to pay the bills. Quality time with loved ones is limited only by time, not budget. Therefore, my investment goal is simply "just in case". A year's worth of expenses in risk-free liquid assets, plus whatever is left at the end of the month goes into index funds, not expecting to sell any in the next 40 years.

[@linusverclyte4988]

You are clearly the kind of professional who's worth spending money on. If I lived in Canada I would. On top of that you provide what amounts to a top notch financial education (without the math thankfully) for free as a public service. I've learned a lot from you which saved me from incurring needless losses and costs. Thanks a lot man! Of course I like every video and have been subscribed for a long time: more people ought to do so so you'll at least see some material reward for all the work that you do. Imagine if this became the standard for financial advisors: you'd need to need to know psychology, taxes, insurance, math and financial economics on top of mere knowledge of investment products. That is a tall order indeed. For some reason I doubt there are many such professionals to be found in the financial industry. I'd say there's a huge difference between a genuine financial advisor and a salesperson in finance pitching all kinds of crap to the detriment of their clients. Clearly DIY investing is the only sensible option unless you have access to real and ethical professionals like Ben and enough money to make it worth your while. Jack Bogle made index investing possible. Ben Felix provides the ironclad case for why the retail investor should stick to index funds/broad passive ETF's and how to build a good portfolio tailored to one's unique situation. Of course you rely on the body of research that is available (which in itself is rare enough since most financial youtubers seem to be spouting their personal opinions without actual knowledge to back it up) but you have a great talent for making such specialized, complex knowledge accessible to the average investor who's not trained in business, finance or economics. Imo this is the single best financial channel on YT. Hands down.

This is now the only channel I recommend to other investors. Frankly, it's SO rational that people have a hard time believing it. It took me years of paying excessive fees to come around. Now more than half of my portfolio is "unmanaged" and half is "managed" even though it is all at a large brokerage. That cuts my fees in half. If you are informed and rational, it can actually make sense to have a portion of your assets managed and pay the fee for that. I get a lot of value from my advisor and he deserves to get paid. He struggled mightily when I began the shift to index funds but eventually, he chilled. His choices were either to go along or lose it all. Not shockingly, he went along.

Another excellent video. Your channel has become the best source of investing information on youtube. Thank you!

[@windSNIPER100]

I don't understand why videos like this don't have the same views from fake gurus. I wish more people will find this free and legit content! I really appreciate for your effort in making this videos!

[@aba1829]

Mate, this is so much information... I was not prepared! Thank you so much! ❤ Please make it into smaller videos, and go into more detail on each bit. I feel like I need weeks of research to really understand this video. 😅

[@mariolaredodiaz7698]

A holistic approach, like for any decision to be made on earth. This got me thinking what we exist for. Great video, thanks Ben.

Fantastic video, probably the only video I've seen on how a financial advisor should be that's really excellent, thank you I've shared it with a bunch of people.

[@PeasOfCrab]

Wow - I'm just starting to get interested in finally taking care of my small pocket of funds/finances after a long period of having my head stuck in the sand. I really appreciate this video and I hope to enjoy reading some of the books you've mentioned. Thanks so much for making this content, Ben Felix!

[@nicola6323]

Yes, it’s so simple and yet so powerful. Many still prefer not to concern themselves with their finances at all.

[@RazeenMujarrab]

Miss you Ben. Wish we get some new episodes soon :)

[@chrisdao]

love the new camera and mic

[@robinimpey101]

Just watched this episode again. So much great information, which sounds like common sense when you hear it, but that's what Ben does.

[@evanlebzu1]

5:02 Thank you, I needed to hear that.

[@Green__one]

Unfortunately I can't afford Ben's services, and there are very few professionals that are more than just stock/mutual fund sales people. I'm pretty happy with my diy setup, I'm not opposed to financial advice, but finding affordable advice that I trust is not exactly simple.

[@RebeccaEvans]

I always appreciate your content. Great use of research sources, historical data, and pointing out logical fallacies

[@georgemanka]

I agree. A financial planner has to give holistic advice based on the client’s goals and objectives. In Australia, the new regime in financial planning requires this approach with the financial planner being divorced from any product as all commissions in Australia are now illegal. Fee for service only.

[@ParallelWealth]

Great video Ben. Very well broken down.

LOVE THIS! I'm just starting out a new career as a financial coach, and this really is an excellent framing and explanation of what a good coach / advisor does, and it is good for me to have this specific list to inform my practice. Thanks, Ben!

[@erranzimmermann1207]

Great video Ben that takes a step back and look at the larger picture. I've been debating on a career change in my 40s and had contemplated a shift to being a CFP, and knew that selling mutual funds in the big 5 was definitely not a direction I want to go. This notion of blending psychology and a financial "life coach" - both interests of mine - speaks much more to me now then telling people what ETFs to invest in. It's given me considerable food for thought, so thank you for the timely video.

Man, that was the perfect video for what i'm going through now. After 20 years of financial catch up and obsessing about it i'm well over where I need to be in terms of my own financial goals, but still obsess about it to no end. I've been recently trying to figure out ways to tone it down but its hard. This really helped.
