Hi folks and welcome to the Meaningful Money podcast session number 117.

Becoming powerful and rich beyond your wildest dreams ain't going to make you feel, budd.

Yeah, but it's worth a shot. This is the podcast dedicated to helping you put your finances in order.

My name is Pete Matthew, and I'm going to share with you everything you need to know and everything you need to do to secure your financial future.

I'm here to help you make sense of money.

Thank you. make sense of money. Okay, financial planning, folks, as you know, is a long game with twists and turns along the way.

Chess is a long game with twists and turns along the way.

And it turns out there's quite a bit you can learn from studying the moves of chess grandmasters

and apply to financial planning and investing.

And that's the subject of a new book, which is called Rich as a King,

how the wisdom of chess can make you a grandmaster of investing.

Today I'm going to be chatting with the book's co-author, Doug Goldstein, about his collaboration

on the book with Grandmaster Susan Polgar, and we're going to be learning some valuable

lessons about behavioral finance on the way.

So stay tuned for that.

After that, I'm not going to be reading any reviews out this week because I'm recording two shows quite close together, so no new reviews in the sort of 30 minutes or so since I recorded the last one.

But I will be announcing the next session topic, of course. But remember, before we get into any of that, this podcast is brought to you with a very kind help of my good friends at 7 Investment Management.

They're a firm of investment managers based up in the city of London and they specialize,

among other things, in multi-asset investing, which brings institutional standard investing techniques

to ordinary people like you and me. 7.m. continue to put their name to the show here and on

the website because they believe in what I'm doing,

trying to get decent, easy to understand, easily applied financial information out to the world.
