Show notes: http://optionalpha.com/show65 If you're even remotely interested in personal finance or wealth building, you've likely heard of Todd Tresidder from Financial Mentor. If you haven't yet, well, then we've got a special treat for you today as Todd joins the Option Alpha podcast in this exclusive interview. Naturally, he's got an incredible resume having spent much of his time in the Hedge Fund space before retiring at age 35, but it's the actionable and real-world investing experience that backs up all the accolades he receives.   In today's show, Todd and I dive deep into traditional equity portfolio allocations, inherent flaws with buy and hold logic, bond market bubbles, statistical and mathematical risk management systems for investing, and the importance of compound growth rates. And while Todd covers each area with such a simplistic and rationale approach, don't be fooled by the power behind the system and thought process. These principles are critical to your financial success moving forward.
