Today’s individual investor is armed with more information and greater—and cheaper!—access to the markets than ever before.

Investing in individual equities remains the truest path to lasting wealth. Many Wall Street brokers will argue to their last breath that you can’t do it on your own. But we have clear evidence—now with a track record that spans more than twenty years—that individual investors can beat the market . . . so long as they can overcome a few key behavioral barriers.
