We DINKs believe that learning from others – both their mistakes and their successes – is one of the most valuable ways to learn. For this reason we tend to seek our interviews and articles on successful – and unsuccessful – examples to learn from.
We do a fair amount of combing the web out of our own interest to find interesting stuff out there, but we also like to contact people to do our own interviews as well. Our own DINKs’ interviews include:
Mr. Chuck Carlson is a prolific author and nationally recognized expert on dividend reinvestment plans. His commentary has appeared in publications such as Barrons, Forbes, Business Week and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance. Mr. Carlson has also appeared in numerous radio and television programs including CNBC and CNN.
Called a “super wealth manager for high rollers”, Mr. Gregory Curtis is the Managing Director and Chairman of the Pittsburgh based Greycourt and Co., a private investment firm exclusively serving clients with $25 millon or more of net worth. Check out Part I & Part II.
We also spoke with Bob Nichols, the CEO of Windward Capital. Bob was kind enough to share his insight into how the wealthy became rich and his thoughts on optimal investing strategies. Bob’s insight: persistence, determination and love of one’s work make the difference in building wealth. Check it out.
Portrait of a Day Trader: Since we don’t trade often we asked Jefferson Krull, a web publicist and active trader, to share his personal experiences with you. Check out here for the video.
Other articles and interviews that we’ve found of interest include:
A Warren Buffet interview was aired on PBS’s Nightly Business Report for their 30 year anniversary.
Mark Cuban is a maverick billionaire living in Dallas and he’s our new hero. Check out why.
J.G. Thomas and Monifa Thomas from the Tavis Smiley Show did an interview on National Public Radio about African-Americans and wealth.
Elizabeth Warren gave a great interview on National Public Radio about the major downsides of the consumer lending industry. This interview was back in 2007, long before the downfall of our current day economy, but her ideals are still timelessly ahead of the game.
Meredith Whitney did an interview with Steve Forbes that primarily focused on credit card regulations.
For those still getting started here is an interesting interview with National Public Radio on Financial Advice for Twenty-Somethings.
We’d also like to point out a site is called AnnOnLine.com and it is run by Ann Devlin, who is a talk radio personality in Pennsylvania. She has interviews with lots of great folks, but our favorites are Gregory Curtis, Bob Carlson, and Ralph Wagner.
Readers: Drop us a comment if you find interesting articles or interviews that you would like to share, or want to suggest folks that we try to interview ourselves.
Happy Reading,
