In this weeks episode Nick talks to Frank Buchholz
Retired financial advisor Frank J. Buchholz shares insights from his 40-year career in investment advising, particularly his time at Merrill Lynch. He discusses his motivation for writing The Investor’s Golden Playbook, a book designed to help novice investors navigate the financial world using clear principles, including assessing time horizon, risk tolerance, and tax implications. Frank emphasizes the importance of long-term investing, the power of compounding, and the need for a “money buffer” for emergencies. He advocates for managed accounts over stock-picking and warns against speculative investments like commodities and cryptocurrencies.
Nick and Frank discuss Frank's memorable lessons from influential clients and mentors, highlighting real-life examples of disciplined investing and generosity. He advises young people to start saving early—citing the compounding effect of even modest daily contributions—and stresses the value of seeking guidance from trustworthy advisors. Frank also reflects on his own financial philosophy, his philanthropic approach to book proceeds, and his continued passion for helping others build secure financial futures.
