We've got a special bonus episode for you today. We're chatting with Rob Berger, host of the wildly popular Rob Berger show on YouTube, which has a quarter million subscribers. I'll introduce Rob a little bit more. I'll give him a more thorough introduction in just a moment. But a couple of things first. Number one, this is a bonus episode. So we typically have two episodes a week on Tuesdays and Fridays. This is an extra episode in addition to our normal Tuesday and Friday shows. So that's number one. Number two, I'm going to tell you Rob Berger's bio, all of his accomplishments and accolades, all of that. I'm going to tell you all of that

in just a moment. But before I do, we posted this interview on YouTube on Friday. And I want to share

some of the comments that we've received because this is the reason that I think you're going to enjoy it.

Chris M. 9037 says, quote, I like Rob. Sticks to the facts and has a nice

FinCon in Portland, Oregon at a conference, and we didn't have

enough time to record a full-length episode, but I still wanted to bring him to you. So we had 20

minutes to record, and that's what I'm bringing you. Oh, and by the way, before I introduce him,

one more quote that I want to share, and it's from at DNO-D-Z7B1Y, who says, quote,

for do-it-yourself investors, I do believe the three best podcasts are Rob Berger, Paula Pant,

and Paul Merriman, end quote. First, thank you to the person who wrote that. I'm very humbled to be in that kind of company.

And second, knowing how valuable, you know, Paul Merriman has been on this podcast many times,

knowing how valuable our conversations with Paul Merriman have been for this audience, for this community,

that's another reason that I want to bring you Rob Berger today.

He is so insightful and such a straight shooter. Okay, so on to his resume. So Rob Berger is a former
