What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I was very excited to learn on Instagram that there was now a Vanguard podcast! So far it’s been very helpful for me and I want to listen to each one! So many investing podcasts are a lot of fluff, speculation and confusion. They say not to time the market yet they talk about buying the dip. I don’t get that. I need this information that you are presenting and I look forward to hearing much more down the road. Thank you for putting this out there!
