John Bogle was the founder and chief executive of The Vanguard Group, and was credited with creating the first index fund.  #JohnBogle #JackBogle #Boglehead<\/p>\n<p>Timestamps:<\/p>\n<p>0:00 &#8211; John Bogle&#8217;s key 10 rules of investing are : <\/p>\n<p>0:16 &#8211; 1. Reversion to the mean: What&#8217;s hot today isn&#8217;t likely to be hot tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>2:51 &#8211; 2. Time is your friend: Let the miracle of compound interest work for you.<\/p>\n<p>5:15 &#8211; 3. Buy right and hold tight: Stick to the plan no matter how greedy or scared you become.<\/p>\n<p>6:09 &#8211; 4. Have realistic expectations: You are unlikely to get rich quickly. <\/p>\n<p>7:09 &#8211; 5. Forget the needle, buy the haystack: Buy broad-based index or exchange-traded funds and you can cut stock risk, style risk, and manager risk. <\/p>\n<p>7:53 &#8211; 6. Minimize the \u201ccroupier\u2019s\u201d take: Minimize fees by investing in low-cost funds. This increases your return.<\/p>\n<p>8:39 &#8211; 7. There\u2019s no escaping risk: There\u2019s no wealth without risk.<\/p>\n<p>12:47 &#8211; 8. Don\u2019t fight the last war: What worked in the past is no predictor of what will work in future. <\/p>\n<p>14:51 &#8211; 9. The hedgehog beats the fox: Foxes represent the financial institutions that charge far too much for their artful, complicated advice. A hedgehog does one thing when threatened \u2014 he curls up into a spiny ball. Simple, but effective, like an index fund. <\/p>\n<p>16:46 &#8211; 10. Stay the course: The secret to successful investing isn\u2019t forecasting or good stock picking. It is about making a plan, sticking to it, and eliminating unnecessary risks.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705Sign-up for our weekly newsletter at https:\/\/TheFinanceNewsletter.com<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa Subscribe on Youtube \u25ba https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/FluentInFinance?sub_confirmation=1<\/p>\n<p>John Bogle\/ Boglehead books:<br \/>\n\ud83d\udcda John Bogle- Common Sense Investing \u25ba https:\/\/amzn.to\/3ucV0dW<br \/>\n\ud83d\udcda The Bogleheads&#8217; Guide to Investing \u25ba https:\/\/amzn.to\/3uaehfS<\/p>\n<p>0:00 Introduction<br \/>\n0:01 John Bogle-Founder of Vanguard 10 rules for investment success<br \/>\n0:17 Reversion to the mean What&#8217;s hot today isn&#8217;t likely to be hot tomorrow<br \/>\n2:52 Time is your friend Let the miracle of compound interest work for you.<br \/>\n5:16 Buy right and hold tight Stick to the plan no matter how greedy or scared you become<br \/>\n6:11 Have realistic expectations You are unlikely to get rich quickly.<br \/>\n7:10 Forget the needle, buy the haystack Buy index funds and you can cut risk<br \/>\n7:55 Minimize the &#8220;croupier&#8217;s&#8221; take Minimize fees by investing in low-cost funds.
