Ever fallen for an investment that seemed like a sure thing... until it wasn’t? You’re not alone. Today, we shine a light on some of the worst investment advice out there—and help you steer clear of it.

Joining Joe at the roundtable are:

  • Paula Pant from Afford Anything
  • Jesse Cramer from Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors
  • And Don McDonald, financial pro and former astronaut (not really, but just go with it) from Talking Real Money.

  • Infinite banking and other shiny traps – What sounds like genius often comes with fine print you’ll wish you’d read.

  • Penny stocks and the illusion of easy money – Spoiler: if it feels like a shortcut, it's probably a detour.

  • Equity-indexed annuities and their slick sales tactics – When someone tells you there’s “no downside,” maybe run.

  • Gut feelings vs. data – The panel weighs in on trusting instincts vs. trusting actual math.

  • Teachers and 403(b) plans – A quick peek behind the curtain at one of the most overlooked problem areas in personal finance.

  • How not to invest – A rundown of red flags and hard-won wisdom from people who’ve seen the worst up close.

Meanwhile, Doug brings the trivia thunder with a question about sitcom salaries—and things quickly go from Big Bang to big bucks.

Whether you’ve made a misstep or are just trying to avoid one, this episode will help you tune out the noise, spot the nonsense, and build a smarter, more resilient investment plan.
