321- Interview with Author & Journalist William Green
b'William Green is a journalist and author of Richer, Wiser, Happier: How the World\\u2019s Greatest Investors Win in Markets and Life.\\n\\xa0\\nOver the last quarter of a century, he has interviewed many of the world\\u2019s best investors and has written for many leading publications in the US and Europe, including The New Yorker, Time, Fortune, Forbes, Barron\\u2019s, Fast Company, Money, Worth, Bloomberg Markets, The Los Angeles Times, The Boston Globe Magazine,\\xa0The New York Observer, The (London) Spectator, The (London) Independent Magazine, and The Economist.\\n\\xa0\\nIn Richer, Wiser, Happier, William Green draws conclusions on interviews that he\\u2019s conducted over twenty-five years with many of the world\\u2019s greatest investors. As he discovered, their talents extend well beyond the financial realm and into practical philosophy.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nThe most successful investors are iconoclasts who question conventional wisdom and profit vastly from their ability to think more rationally, rigorously, and objectively. But this is easier said than done when you are investing real money.\\xa0Money you can\\u2019t afford to lose tends to be \\u2018hot\\u2019 or emotional. Pro gamblers try to avoid sitting down with more than they can lose but anyone investing all of their own hard-earned money is always sitting down with more than they can lose. Fear of losing more than you can afford to lose tends to make the mind go irrational. You start guessing.\\n\\xa0\\nYou can\\u2019t tell the difference between a good idea and a bad idea. Investing decisions are not life and death decisions, but remaining rational in the face of intense emotions is an art that is learned in the trenches.\\n\\xa0\\nThis week on InvestED, Phil and Danielle sit down to speak to William Green about investing, staying rational, and why you don\\u2019t need to be an expert to invest successfully.\\n\\nValue investing requires staying rational.
