Today we dig into the topic of trading stocks. And who better to speak with than the guy who started a "university" to teach the subject?
My guest today is Steve Burns, founder of www.NewTraderU.com.
Here's some background about Steve, directly from his About page:
"After a lifelong fascination with financial markets, Steve Burns started investing in 1993, and trading his own accounts in 1995. It was love at first trade. A natural teacher with a unique ability to cut through the bull and make complex ideas simple, Steve took to blogging and social media by founding New Trader U in 2011.
"Since then, New Trader U has attracted hundreds of thousands of visits a month, becoming the go-to resource for people wanting to build a strong, trading foundation. New Trader U offers an extensive blog resource with more than 1,000 original articles (Steve posts daily).
"Asked daily if he could mentor, Steve realized that there weren’t enough hours in the day to give everyone the attention they deserved, so New Trader 101 was born. Developed to help beginning traders survive their first year in the markets, New Trader 101 quickly became Steve’s passion."
The interview covers:
- Steve's personal story as it relates to financial independence
- His suggestions for individual investors to protect their portfolios
- Learning to manage the psychology of investing
- Teaching kids the skills of investing
Enjoy the show!
