How A Stock Market Turns Investors Into Gamblers – Audio Edition

Today I am going to share with you an article I wrote after the January 2018 stock market volatility. It’s as relevant today as it was then. However, this time around you don’t have to strain your eyes; you can use your ears. Optimal Living Daily has turned my article into a podcast. Turn off your TV, shut down your brokerage website, relax.


After you are done listening I would love to have your feedback. Should I accompany my future articles with an audio version similar to this one? (I won’t be the one reading them).
