Had the same problem not being able to play for awhile. Found new emblem at the bottom of the page for Sound Investing. Whatever I had in my library before didn’t work. Clicked on the new one and it works. Try searching Sound Investing if you don’t see it.

Every time I try to listen or download the podcast, it doesn’t work. Not sure what is going wrong

I enjoy this content, however over the past two months or so, the Podcasts app on my iPhone won’t download or play new released episodes. I see a generic Wordpress icon where the show’s icon used to be, and each new episode won’t play or download. Ongoing for two+ months. Anyone else having...Read full review »

This is a great podcast filled with wisdom. I wish more people would listen to his advice!!

I've been listening to this podcast for years. The Ultimate Buy and Hold strategy was interesting to me, especially the way Paul provided so much data and honestly notes shortfalls (what we don't know we don't know). I was trading stocks and options and while I wasn't doing...Read full review »

Great podcast for in depth analysis of true investing. I love this show!
Great show. no Joke via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/05/20
The only finance lesson you need to know is to listen to Paul Merriman. He is a classic. His strategies are easy to implement with the M1 Finance portfolio. All you have to do is stay the course. Buy and hold, but don’t forget the hold.

Thank you for all your work. I invest wholly in VSIAX. I will do this until I accumulate more wealth and can more broadly diversify into more value, EM, and reit funds. A question related to your last podcast dated 1/15/2020, do the percentages assume a DCA or a lump sum investment schedule?...Read full review »

My favorite podcast. I look forward to the next one every time!

I would highly recommend this podcast for anyone handling their own investments. By far, the best “teacher” in the business. Terrific podcast-

All I know about investment and retirement I learned from Paul. Love his podcasts and also his website. Thank you Paul! Hope you get to live to a 120 :)

Paul Merriman is a national treasure, made in the mold of the late great Jack Bogle. He spends his retirement years helping people build a better future without taking excess risk and wasting a fortune on fees.

Love you Paul and your priceless advices.

Paul’s ultimate buy and hold strategy is a game changer!
Yeti7676 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/05/19
Paul made his money long ago, and has nothing to sell. He just wants his listeners to be smart about investing their own money, and explains exactly how to do it in simple ways. One of his great ideas is to simply invest your money in 2 different mutual funds and leave it there 'til you...Read full review »
Never miss an episode via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/25/19
This is hands down the best financial literacy podcast I have ever heard. Core content is repetitive but the repetitiousness of it all is how is amateur investors learn as he slowly deviates around the core concepts to help us better understand. This is one podcast I anxiously await for.
litch81 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/29/19
Many years ago as I first ventured into the world of understanding investing I discovered Paul Merriman. I can say without a doubt I’ve have learned more from this podcast than any other thing I’ve done. No hidden agenda here, all you’ll find is solid advice for those who take the time to...Read full review »
Pennywise0912 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/19
This is one of a few financial and investing podcasts I listen to. Paul is a little dry. But I love his comment, “Get your information from University Street, rather than Wall Street or Main street” . I have learnt a lot especially about mistakes you can make investing. ( have made some of them...Read full review »

It is difficult for most people to understand how to best invest for retirement and to plan to use your savings in retirement. There’s lots of ‘noise’ and different advice from different sources. Paul Merriman provides a clear methodology that’s rooted in academic research and evidence and will...Read full review »
George in Okla via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/19
The content here is game-changing. Paul is on a mission to teach, educate, and train with no gain to himself. Great, impartial information for those who want to be DIY passive investors that squeeze the most possible return out of each asset class and an overall diversified portfolio
Lehi625 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/07/19
He makes great arguments with proven data for why his approach is best. I follow his portfolio in my investments. We could do without the coins noises in the background though. It’s very distracting...and really ridiculous.
ndlex via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/19
I love the simplicity and style. Easy to listen and learn. This program is designed to teach, not entertain! If you want to be entertained...turn on the TV!
bbargar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/19
He rambles a bit. The podcast could be cut down to 30 minutes.
DSEichinger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/18
I have been listening to Paul for years. He has pointed me in the direction of academic research and away from stock picking. I owe him a ton of the credit for my progress.
Dimondwolves via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/18
Thank you Paul Merriman! I was introduced to your teachings simply by chance. You have led me down an amazing path towards financial independence. The path has taken me to many blogs, podcasts and books, but I always come back to you and cannot wait for every new podcast or article.
Sam Canders via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/21/18
I’ve listened for a few years now, and gone back to listen to many back episodes. Paul’s advice is sound, makes sense, and is actionable. Half my assets are with a large financial institution’s private bank (.5%), and they are very comfortable with my using Paul’s recommended ultimate buy and...Read full review »

Really objective information from Paul backed up by solid facts and historical data. I was a complete beginner 2 years ago . Now I have enough knowledge and confidence to either be a DIY investor or to make a financial advisor feel Awkward.

I've been listening to Paul's podcast for over a year. It's the first thing on Wednesday mornings on my schedule. Paul's insights are excellent, although I don't buy into the small cap value tilt and higher expense ratio DFA funds over Vanguard. But there is so much more...Read full review »

I really enjoy listening to Paul. He is wise and helpful. I love his investing philosophy and how he teaches it. I have not loved the recent focus on Motif. I hope the show goes back to the old format. Thank you Paul for all you do!

Paul Merriman has interesting content if you have the patience to wade through his boring financial sermons that don't make any sense.
