Beyond Fear: How Risky Is Investing & Can You Trust the Market? - Ep. #72
How safe is the stock market?
00:00 - Intro
00:38 - A Story Beyond Fear Story - Ft. Will Smith
08:35 - How Risky is the Stock Market?
In today's story, Jay recalls how a Will Smith video that he had shared on Facebook in 2017 changed the trajectory of his life forever. If you haven't seen it, this is the clip where Will Smith talks about his skydiving adventure and the fear that proceeded the jump. Find out how just sharing this clip had a huge butterfly effect. Have you ever had a butterfly effect life changing moment? Let us know in the comments!
In the main topic, Jay answers the question, "How risky is the stock market?" Investing is an act with the goal of attaining gain over time. The market is volatile, and leaves many scared by the unknowns of the future. Over time, how does an investor's certainty of gain improve (historically speaking)? Can time really help us more realistically project a healthy gain for our investments? Does the S&P500 actually yield an average of 11% per year? Can you get 12% like Dave Ramsey claims you can on the Dave Ramsey Show? What is the difference between a simple average and an annualized average? How are these different from a geometric average? Why does this matter to you?
