Are you interested in managing your own investments, but don\\u2019t know where to start? My next guest was in the same situation. He was told to \\u201ctrust the professionals\\u201d for most of his life until he realized his returns we lower than the market average. He tried to learn how to invest in the stock market, but there really wasn\\u2019t anything out there that clearly organized investing step by step until he found Tykr. In this episode, we talk about his career background and his journey to taking control of his own investments. Please welcome Tim Martin.
