145: 6k Investing Special - 2 Year Review

Artistic Finance

An update on the Artistic Finance 6k--the $6,000 of investments we made in May of 2021. We’re joined by three lighting designers, a bond investment CEO, and a data analyst to review how our investments compare to the S&P 500.

We also discuss fees, and how that plays into investing.
