#26: How ETF investing started and what the next decade will bring.

The last 10 years has seen a lot of innovation in the investment world and exchange-traded funds have been at the forefront of that change.

In this 2-year anniversary episode of my podcast “The Prosperous and Happy Life”  I share my personal story of how I began using ETFs after the great recession and what I think the next 10 years will bring us.

My producer and editor of the podcast: Nicholas Saranczuk joins me in a discussion of:

  • How the prosperous and happy theme came about.
  • Why I began using exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in my investment portfolios.
  • What it was like trying to educate clients on the benefits of ETF investing.
  • Innovations in the ETF landscape.
  • Where I see ETF investing in the next 10 years.
