Jeff Voudrie, a Financial Planner in Tennessee Explains What Investors Can Learn from Todd Kaufman’s Mistakes in “Gold Rush Alaska”
Johnson City, TN (PRWEB) November 30, 2013 -- Investments management advisor Jeff Voudrie, president of Common Sense Advisors, has written an entire book chock full of lessons from “Gold Rush Alaska.” The book, How Successful Investors Tripled the Return of the S&P 500, notes that instead of learning from errors made in season one, the miners on “Gold Rush Alaska” invested more heavily in a plan that wasn’t working as season two began.
Similarly, the financial planner in Tennessee notes, many investors are sure that the market will continue historical trends, and if their investments lose money, they will eventually rebound in spectacular fashion. Popular wisdom (which Voudrie does not agree with) says thus, more funds, not fewer, should be poured into vehicles that have experienced a downturn because they will rise again. “That approach has cost many investors their entire nest eggs,” Voudrie says, and that “one of the biggest needs for investors in today’s volatile market is to limit their losses when a given vehicle goes south. “
Voudrie, the financial planner in Tennessee, argues that shows such as “Gold Rush Alaska” expose the fallacy of “doubling down” when times get tough and pouring money into a losing scheme. On the show, the team eventually interacted with a successful mine owner in season two, and learned that he “does what he can to minimize the unknowns and bases decisions on factual data,” Voudrie notes. “He manages in such a way as to minimize losses and to make a profit.”
Voudrie heartily believes that success in the market hinges on this philosophy: minimizing losses and making all decisions based on extensive data. That idea led Voudrie to patent a cutting-edge software system called Portfolio Steward™ that is designed to eliminate the possibility of huge losses and causes an investor’s funds to react nimbly to market changes, based on extensive data.
Planning for one’s golden years can be enhanced by learning from the bumbling men of “Gold Rush Alaska.” Voudrie draws from their mishaps and other practical examples to guide his clients to reasonable earnings in an era where it’s far easier to cling to previous thinking and lose huge amounts of money.
