Cash Flow Investing – Insights from Dr. David Phelps
We’re going to do things a little differently in today’s episode. Instead of Dr. David Phelps interviewing a guest, he’ll be sharing his reaction to The White Coat Investor’s blog post, entitled “The Pros and Cons of Income Investing.”
The author of the post, Dr. Jim Dahle, is the founder of The White Coat Investor and a notable advocate for helping doctors and colleagues develop financial acumen. His primary focus is on the more traditional avenues of investing through Wall Street, while Dr. Phelps has taken a different path and advocates real estate investing. Tune in to hear Dr. Phelps break down the blog post and share his thoughts and concerns along the way.
