Let that voice wash over your wealth building sensibilities, and enjoy the ride!

I listen to The Simple Path To Wealth on audiobook every 6 months. Whenever I start to fall into my old habits of trading on News Headlines and trying to time the market I go back to it again. I remind myself that nobody knows what the market will do 5 minutes from now. So J.L. Collins is now my calming voice of reason. Thank you

I have read a ton on investing, but after reading his book, I use his principles almost exclusively. It’s worked out tremendously for our household

This is a great clip that sums up The Simple Path strategy and the justification for it. Thanks for everything JL!

JL has the most enchanting voice I have ever heard and a great investing path to follow too ! I’m a U.K. subscriber and purchased the Playing with FIRE documentary previously and thoroughly enjoyed it.

My favorite JLC quote: a stock can only drop 100%, but it can go up unboundedly! :)

I took Jim's advice through Vanguard and I do not regret it.

I've been following this path total stock market and total bond market index funds for about 5 years now.... Hope it turns out well in the end when I retire in 25 years 🤞

Hello. Simple but effective to sum up this book.

Three minutes that could change your life

[markcatanese]

Great advice. Sometimes simple is the best way to invest. It took me 55 years to finally realize that. I find it funny how they say sometimes the best invested is a dead person because they don’t touch there investments. Max out the index and DONT TOUCH IT!!!!

I'm a Real Estate guy and I just started in the stock market. I bought all of the ARK funds instead of VTSAX. We will see if I was smart or not.

This is only works in the US, not on other countries.

Not a fan of buy and hold if stock market goes down
