Ep. 43 - Why Simplicity Trumps Complexity with Ben Carlson, Author of “A Wealth of Common Sense”

Ep. 43 - Why Simplicity Trumps Complexity with Ben Carlson, Author of “A Wealth of Common Sense”

For this episode of Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Ben Carlson, Author of the book, “A Wealth of Common Sense.” I picked up Ben’s book not too long ago and found it very useful and informative. The over-arching theme throughout the book, as it states on the cover, is answering the question, “why simplicity trumps complexity in any investment plan.” I thought this would be a great topic to discuss with Ben for the podcast. The goal for this episode is to understand why simple solutions can be used to solve complex problems. As Warren Buffet states, “Investing is simple, but not easy.”
