This episode will cover fundamental analysis, which is the process of determining a value of a stock based on its financial information. This episode builds on the previous episode on financial statements. At the end of this episode you should have tons of tools to evaluate and compare stocks. Fundamental Analysis is both a very useful topic to understand, and can also be very interesting. If my explanations made the topic seem uninteresting, check out document which might help give context to why this topic is both interesting and important.  Any corrections or further information can be viewed here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sCs6glhgCVtRsfUY9bXuuS2sA6YKxyQFTJW5V8SxmTk/edit?usp=sharing Tweet me! @kerrikozol For more information on the show or for inquires, please visit: www.unpackfinance.com Please read our disclaimer here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DnT_H4wlaobbh0Cm58GkS4PR5AtuUMYH89gxg_xBuIU/edit?usp=sharing --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/unpackfinance/message

This is the last episode of a podcast you will listen to if you are afraid to start investing. In all seriousness (and there is very little of this in the episode), Rose and Kerri talk about reasons you should not be afraid to start investing. Kerri gives some advice and Rose shares some personal experiences. This is a fun and informational episode, with a few side stories and jokes. Did you know Kerri was almost hit by a car?! Also shoutout to Meryl Streep, our biggest fan!

The 10th episode has arrived! Here to celebrate, Kerri is joined by both Joanna and Rose to talk about how to save for retirement. It may seem early, but as we've shown in past episodes, the sooner you start the better! We cover IRAs, 401(k)s, and 403(b) retirement plans, as well as the difference between Traditional and Roth retirement plans. By the end of the episode you should have a better idea of the basic types of accounts. You may not know which one is best for you, but certainly you should leave with a better idea of the questions you should ask!  Any corrections or further information can be viewed here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X5BcIY1YNj5MuZf54N2ftYtxTCFxnVkxa1XKpB3X6hQ/edit?usp=sharing For more information on the show or for inquires, please visit: www.unpackfinance.com Please read our disclaimer here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DnT_H4wlaobbh0Cm58GkS4PR5AtuUMYH89gxg_xBuIU/edit?usp=sharing --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/unpackfinance/message

This week's episode is shorter and is just me. I recorded an episode with Joanna about P/E and P/B ratios but there was something wrong with the file and I was unable to use it. This episode is a last minute recording, but I hope it is still helpful. Tune in next week for episode 10 with both Joanna and Rose!  Link to article: https://www.fool.com/investing/stock-market/types-of-stocks/  For more information on the show or for inquires, please visit: www.unpackfinance.com Please read our disclaimer here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DnT_H4wlaobbh0Cm58GkS4PR5AtuUMYH89gxg_xBuIU/edit?usp=sharing --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/unpackfinance/message
