ETF Store Show Recap – 10/22/11

Listen to The ETF Store Show every Saturday at 4pm on KCMO Talk Radio 710AM as we cover everything you need to know about Exchange Traded Funds and the world of investing.

On our most recent radio show, we concluded our series of case studies on how we believe individuals at different stages of their lives should be approaching investing and planning for retirement.  For our last case study, we focused specifically on those individuals just getting started out in their careers who need to begin the process of building wealth and investing for their future.  ETFs can be the perfect investment for these individuals because of the ease in which you can build a well-rounded portfolio with only a handful of ETFs.

For many individuals just starting out, the process of beginning to build a nest egg and planning for retirement can be a daunting task, so we explained how ETFs can actually make this process easier and less stressful.  When you consider the low cost structure of ETFs, the transparency of ETFs, and the ability to build highly diversified portfolios, it becomes clear why The ETF Store believes they’re the best way to approach retirement rather than with more expensive actively managed mutual funds where you don’t always know exactly what you’re holding and where you may be at the mercy of an underperforming fund manager.

ETF Store Show Recap – 10/15/11

Listen to The ETF Store Show every Saturday at 4pm on KCMO Talk Radio 710AM as we cover everything you need to know about Exchange Traded Funds and the world of investing.

On our most recent radio show, we interviewed Michael Johnston, the founder of ETF Database which is one of the most heavily trafficked websites in the ETF industry.  We discussed the various ETF analytical tools offered on his website,  etfdb.com, and also delved into Michael’s thoughts on the ETF industry in general.  Michael is extremely well versed in ETFs and has been quoted in publications such as Barron’s, US Today, The Wall Street Journal, and CNBC.com.

We discussed how ETF Database tools such as the Mutual Fund to ETF Converter and ETF Screener can help investors transition their expensive mutual fund portfolio to less expensive ETFs.  Michael also provided his thoughts on where the rapidly growing ETF industry is heading along with some ETFs for investors to consider as part of the foundation of a well-diversified portfolio.

ETF Store Show Recap – 10/08/11

The ETF Store Show is moving to a new time!  Listen to The ETF Store Show every Saturday at 4pm on KCMO Talk Radio 710AM as we cover everything you need to know about Exchange Traded Funds and the world of investing.

On our most recent radio show, we continued with the third of four case studies regarding how individuals at different stages of their lives should be approaching investing.  This week, we focused on those individuals who are younger, working professionals with a growing family who may be finding it difficult to prioritize building a nest egg and may be unsure on how to best position their portfolios given their longer time horizon.

We emphasized the importance of saving enough – the critical first step down the right path to reaching your financial goals is saving.  You obviously can’t invest in the markets if you don’t save first.  We then discussed the need to optimize the dollars that you’re saving.  This is best achieved through using the proper types of accounts for your unique situation to take advantage of tax savings so you can have your money work for you.  Finally, using the right investment strategy and investments is crucial – younger investors need to make sure that they’re being aggressive enough and they need to take advantage of the benefits of asset allocation which you can do very effectively with ETFs.  Investors can also lower their investment costs and taxes with ETFs – both of which can have a huge impact on returns, particularly for individuals with such a long-term time horizon.
