Length: 36:09
Notes:
0:00 Show open and introduction. Kim talks about the live show, featuring calls on 401(k)s, IRAs and the awful, awful products known as Life Settlements.
1:52 Kim explains why she calls the show "Financial Success Coaching." She says anyone can be financially successful, and they can do it themselves in their own accounts. All it takes is some basic education.
3:43 Kim was once an options trader, and she says professional traders call individual investors "sheep." You are the sheep that's hunted by the hungry wolves of Wall Street. A truly educated investor can defend himself/herself.
5:45 Why financial advisors who work on commission create a huge conflict of interest.
9:13 Kim talks about the classes her company teaches: The Snider Investment Method workshop and How to Turn Your 401(k) into a Million-Dollar Nest Egg.
12:44 Bruce called in to ask about the Snider Method's average yield.
13:36 Leon asks, if I don't have a 401(k) or other retirement plan through my employer? How should I save? Kim suggests an IRA.
16:42 Roger asks about the minimum amount needed in the Snider Method, and Kim says $25,000. The more you can put in the Snider Method, the more stable it becomes.
19:23 Kim talks about the online course, "How to Turn Your 401(k) Into A Million-Dollar Nest Egg" and how it works.
23:30 Kim explains the difference between a regular IRA and a Roth IRA.
25:25 Dan calls to give a testimonial on the Snider Investment Method.
