Sometimes figuring out the best way to invest your money is to look back at your mistakes and those of others. The reality is there is no one person that could accurately pick winning stocks day in and day out, or even over time. That may not be the vibe you hear in certain areas of investing such as on X or TikTok, or in the financial blogosphere. Investing remains tough, with so much information coming at you literally around the clock. The only way to get better is to be disciplined and live in a constant state of learning. Do those things, and you may have a better-than-average chance at wealth-building success. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi sits down on the Opening Bid podcast with money manager and longtime financial blogger Barry Ritholtz to discuss his new book called: How Not to Invest: The Ideas, Numbers and Behaviors That Destroy Wealth – and How to Avoid Them. Ritholtz is the co-founder and chairman of Ritholtz Wealth Management and has seen his fair share of investing mistakes over decades. In many cases, he has written about them on his blog as if to chronicle history’s biggest investing mistakes. The two discuss his new book and the biggest issues facing markets right now.
