  • Andrew Hallam grew a million-dollar investment portfolio on a schoolteacher’s salary … by his mid-30’s.
    Wow.
    He’s read more than 400 books about investing and money management, and he’s whittled decades of knowledge and experience to nine basic rules.
    In his bestselling book, Millionaire Teacher, he describes these nine lessons in detail.
    He shares these nine rules on this podcast, and his ideas are so substantive that - for the first time - I decided to release his interview as a two-part series.
    In last week’s episode, Andrew shared the first three rules of building wealth. This week, Andrew dives into the final six rules that can turn middle-class people into millionaires.
    Here’s a sneak peek:
    #1: Learn how to think and spend like a millionaire.
    #2: Start investing early. Time is your greatest investment ally.
    #3: Choose low-cost index funds. Small fees pack big punches.
    #4: Understand your inner psychology. Conquer the enemy in the mirror.
    #5: Learn how to build a balanced, responsible portfolio.
    #6: Create an indexed account, no matter where you live.
    #7: Don’t resign yourself to taking this journey alone.
    #8: Inoculate yourself against slick sales rhetoric.
    #9: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
    These rules may sound simple, but our discussion took an advanced turn. Andrew and I dive deep into thorny topics like hedge funds, casinos, and human psychology.
    Enjoy this two-part series, and don’t forget to check out Andrew’s excellent book, Millionaire Teacher..

    Great content, sounded like a friend of mine, but I'm not very sure about the market due to volatility and i'm more focused on short term and following a news about an investor who grew huge profit in few months, my question is, what strategies can i apply to make this from the current market?

      There are good gains in the trading market with good research , i started using this strategy when the market crash begun and I've been able to to double the value of my portfolio to about $380,000 although i have been investing in the past few years i still needed the help of an investment expert because i feel trading requires a lot of research and grounded experience.

    Excellent summary and wrap up. Great podcast. I learned about CAPE ratios for the first time. This was great! I read the book and listened to parts 1 and 2. The book was so clear and answered so many questions and clarified. Your summaries to clarify understanding, during the podcast, were so helpful. You asked things I wanted to ask and didn't think to ask. Thank you. Had no idea your first language was Nepalese. I am an English teacher overseas and did not detect any accent. I did notice your enunciation and articulation were quite clear and I figured that was because you had a radio voice or some related training. I raced to Howja Say. I will provide this resource to my students. Thank you for everything!

    Paula keeps getting hung up with her rational brain on why people would gamble against the continual top performance of indexes. Indexes don't outperform in 100% of scenarios and never will "So you are saying there is a chance?" is the thing peoples brains go to and they want to be those winners. That and/or just intellectual laziness and apathy towards their financial future are super common as well.

    Bingo. This is what all the super conservative passive 3-4%/yr bond investors don't get. The higher return of a full stock investment over the long run will always do better. Through ups and downs, S&P has returned 9-10% a year on average. If you just take out 3-4% a year, your portfolio continues to grow, and if you keep the dollar withdrawal amount the same every year, the percentage decrease every year.
