FYI: A LITTLE WHILE back, I found myself in an Uber. The driver began to share his political views. Before long, it became clear that his point of view was well outside the norm. He explained that the Federal Reserve is not a government entity, as most people believe. Rather, it is privately owned by the Rothschild family. In addition, he said, the Rothschilds also control the president—not just this president, but the presidency in general. The Command-in-Chief, he said, is just a puppet of the Rothschilds.
Recognizing the absurdity of these statements, I gently suggested he double-check his facts. But he saw no need. “I have checked this information many, many times, my friend.” Clearly, he was getting his information from less-than-reliable sources. But sadly, he showed no interest in contrary opinions.
This is obviously an extreme case. When it comes to investments, though, it’s not unusual to find yourself caught in the cross-currents of information and misinformation. How can you avoid this? Below are 10 ways to help validate your investment choices:
