Episode Description

According to Forbes editor Matt Schifrin not only are outstanding self-directed investors trouncing market indexes, but they are also taking control of their own capital in order to repair cracked nest-eggs and improve their lot in life. In Matt Schifrin’s new book THE WARREN BUFFETTS NEXT DOOR: The World’s Greatest Investors You’ve Never Heard Of and What You Can Learn From Them, he profiles 10 regular people who can pick stocks better than the vast majority of all professional advisors and money managers employed by firms like Merrill Lynch and Fidelity. These armchair investors don’t seek the riches of Wall Street, but rather have more modest goals—being able to afford a family vacation every year, sending their kids to a good college, and having enough income to last them through retirement. Schifrin details their personal stories, along with their investment strategies, trading philosophies, and rules for investing.
