102: Dan Bortolotti - The godfather of index investing in Canada
Dan Bortolotti is the creator of the Canadian Couch Potato blog, and host of the (soon to be resurrected?) Canadian Couch Potato podcast. He is THE authority on index investing in Canada and has just written a new book, Reboot Your Portfolio (Amazon affiliate link).
Dan joined me to explain what the book promises readers, and to discuss his journey from before knowing anything about investing himself, to becoming the writer behind the incredibly popular CanadianCouchPotato.com blog, and then eventually becoming a portfolio manager and financial planner.
We cover a range of topics in this interview, including:
-Dan's thoughts on how cryptocurrencies fit into a portfolio
-Why investing doesn't have to be time-consuming or exciting
-The rationale behind the couch potato method
-How you can reboot your portfolio whether you have $1,000 or $1 million
-and more
