What happens when a money manager responsible for billions of dollars of investments feels burnt out and decides to become a personal finance teacher instead?

David is a former chief investment strategist and chief portfolio strategist, responsible for $33 billion of investments, heading up in this role a 21-person strong research group.
He is host of the incredibly popular Money for the Rest of Us podcast, his primary platform for teaching thousands of people about money, investing and the economy. David’s podcast has been featured in Business Insider, Forbes, and US News & World Report.
