Even though yesterday was Halloween, we continue our trek through a graveyard-worth of scary financial stories. On Monday the Fintern brought us the “Top 5 Scariest Investing Tales with Rick Ferri.” It was only fitting to keep the Halloween trend going with last year’s holiday special, 5 Tales of Financial Horror with CFP Chad Smith. Here’s the original description of the show:
What money bumps keep you awake at night? Certified Financial Planner Chad Smith knows. On our very special Halloween episode, he reveals FIVE movie-themed horrors and the strategies it’ll take to face your fear.
In our headline segment the guys contemplate NOT paying off your mortgage early. When is that a good idea? Also, we answer a hotline call from Richie about HSAs and a letter from Russell about investing in the FOREX exchange. Is it a good idea to trade the FOREX?
Of course, like always, there’s LOTS more fun on today’s show….as we keep the Halloween fun alive for one more day!
