Episode 29. William Bernstein, MD
On this episode, I interviewed a physician investing legend, Dr. William Bernstein. He is a neurologist turned financial author and investment advisor. Now most of us will not be able to reach the asset threshold need for him to manage our money, but the good news is we don’t have to. He provides great advice for the rest of us also.
I have admired Dr. Bernstein’s approach to investing for many years and want to acknowledge him as one of the pioneers of index investing. His books are a must read for those who want to learn about financial history. Despite his tremendous expertise, he is very accessible and approachable and above all a teacher.
