Investor. Writer. Researcher. Strategist. Family man. This week’s guest wears multiple hats—all at the same time. Known for his blog, podcast, and several books about the craft of investing, Meb Faber’s voice appeals to investors and non-investors alike. Investing is “all about narratives,” Faber says, “Look at historical contexts and global weather, stakeholder interests and your own motivations.” A veteran strategist with a love for reading, Faber is a big proponent of portfolio diversification and learning to be a “value investor.”

Born in Colorado, Meb moved around a lot as a boy and landed in North Carolina for his adolescent years. After graduating from the University of Virginia with a double major in Engineering Science and Biology, he changed direction and became an investment strategies expert. Today, he lives in Los Angeles with his wife and three-year-old son. Listening to Meb’s conversation with Eric,  you’ll quickly hear why he is such a natural fit for Alto’s mantra, “you do you.”

In this episode, value investor Meb Faber shares market wisdom applicable not only to stocks, bonds, and building your portfolio, but also to life itself, from farming to family and beyond. If you want to know the secret to being ready for the unexpected—take a listen.
