Please help me my website article check me https://www.3patilucky.com/
fellas I have to disagree with side hustle being passive income. if you're actively working I don't think that can be considered passive. even a hobby can still be a job.

I just listened to "The Investing for Beginners Podcast - Your Path to Financial Freedom" and I must say, it's a real game-changer! As someone who's been wanting to dip their toes into the world of investing but felt overwhelmed by all the jargon and options out there, this podcast was an absolute lifesaver. https://www.flickr.com/people/wax-paperie/ The hosts broke down complex concepts in such a simple and relatable way. From explaining the difference between stocks and bonds to discussing various investment vehicles like index funds and real estate, they covered a wide range of topics without making me feel like I was drowning in information. https://justpaste.it/u/WaxPaperie
This was a great listen for those of us getting near retirement. Lots of great information here. Thanks for including this in your podcast and hope you add more content from time to time for older investors.
I think your discussion about diversification might lead people down the wrong path
I just started listening to this podcast and like that these guys don't add all the drama that many do today. It's a great listen for not only new investors. I would love to hear more on investing for those of us in our 50' and 60's.
this is a perfect Sunday morning listen!!! Thanks so much!
Show has a lot of potential. I would like there to be more of a back and forth exchange between the hosts. There is a tendency (usually for Andrew) to talk a long time, while the other host sits in silence. I find that this makes the show less entertaining. I would also recommend having more listener input included in the show, such as pre-recorded calls from listeners who have questions. Overall, I feel that the pace of the show could be improved by covering more topics during each show and by having a better balance in the speaking contributions from the two hosts. When answering a question or giving an opinion, I feel that it would be more interesting if one host did not spend so long doing so. In short, need to pick up the pace, have more balanced interaction, and not spend so long on one particular point.
Good show, I work in an investment bank in Ghana 🇬🇭 and we do similar training for the public
love the content of this podcast. I am a beginner investor and I loved the way Andrew guides the nubes with his thoughts and line of thinking . I am definitely going the path of value investing. The only qualm I have is the quality of the audio. it has been going up and down and has really gone down . would really appreciate if I can listen this with better audio quality . cheers guys
