Summary: Adam Curran comes on the show to share his investment philosophy—influenced by his upbringing and exposure to middle class life. Adam’s view of the economy is largely shaped by the people he advises; in his career he quickly learned that much of his Wall Street knowledge was useless. Rather, kitchen table financial planning taught him a lot about how everyday finances work, and what’s really important within the markets. Tune in for more information.

-Adam could see the market dropping another 20% -Adam’s advice: Take a chunk of your portfolio and put it in something predictable/dependable, have a heavy emphasis on stocks that pay dividends, and don’t turn your back on the market. -There’s no asset class quite as good as income producing real estate; it’s best to sit on the sidelines and catch certain deals.
