    2025/09/01
    Today’s guest discovered the value of money long before most of us even thought about it. At just ten years old, he was recycling bottles, selling to classmates, and already planting the seeds of financial independence. But his journey took a big turn the day he stumbled upon CNBC as a teenager. That single moment sparked a lifelong passion for investing—Earl Yaokasin realized that true wealth isn’t built in classrooms or boardrooms—it’s built through experience, reflection, and learning from legends like Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Mohnish Pabrai. By blending those timeless philosophies with his own insights, Earl developed a strategy not only to build wealth for himself but to help others reach financial freedom. He’s not just here to talk about investing—he’s here to show us how money can become a tool for living your dreams. Michelle interviews Earl Yaokasin, CFA, founder of WealthArch Investment Services, a seasoned investment advisor with over two decades of experience. The discussion centers on the psychological aspects of investing, including biases like confirmation bias and overconfidence, and the importance of maintaining a disciplined approach to investment.

    Earl emphasizes the value of aligning his personal investments with those of his clients, advocating for a strategy that involves buying when the market is fearful and selling when it is greedy, echoing Warren Buffett's investment philosophy.
