Welcome to Behavior Gap Radio, the weekly radio show with Carl Richards and Bill Schultheis about the world of investing and financial planning.
Bill and Carl complement each other well. In 1998, Bill created the Coffeehouse Investor. Most recently he's published an updated version of The New Coffeehouse Investor. In addition to Coffeehouse Investor, Bill is also a principal and fee-only financial advisor with Soundmark Wealth Management in Kirkland, Washington. Advocating a simple and sophisticated investment philosophy, Bill has built a large and active community both on and offline.
For 15 years, Carl has studied how behavior impacts investing. Finding a gap between investment and investor rates of return, Carl named this phenomenon the Behavior Gap. Carl shares his findings via BehaviorGap.com and at public speaking engagements with the goal of helping people close the gap by learning and practicing the best investor behavior. Carl is also the principal of Clearwater Wealth Management, a fee-only advisory firm.
