Investing in Stocks
Manage episode 312859697 series 3249526
I'm really excited to have Austin Lieberman on the podcast today. I have been following him on Twitter for the past 6 months. He's served as a Captain in the Air Force for ~7 years and taught himself how to invest. You don't need to have a business or finance background to be a great investor.
The biggest thing that stood out to me is Austin's transparency. It's easy to talk about success in hindsight. Austin really puts himself out there and shares his ideas and picks as he makes them. He continuously shares his learnings both good and bad - which is rare to see online.
A couple of months ago, Austin and a few other investors started 7Investing, which is a great subscription service on providing guidance on potential investments. I've personally benefited from some of the picks that Austin has made and would recommend checking it out.
The goal of this podcast is to really get down to the basics of investing. Investing in stocks can be a great way of building financial independence if done right.
