Listener Reviews

Talking Real Money
Every week Tom and Don hit it out of the ballpark with their masterful blending of insightful content and humor on a topic most of us don’t like to talk about - MONEY. Few aspects can make or break our lives than this one. Failing to master it can really lead to an unpleasant life, not to mention our final years. Kudos to them for being warriors and so giving of themselves to help each of us build a better life.
Talking Real Money
Solid financial advice. No gimmicks approach to investing and love the humor which keeps a normally boring topic interesting!
THE go-to academic financial advice
Currently subscribed to a dozen or so of the top podcasts, and they are the FIRST to recommend a market-cap globally diversified portfolio for long-term investing. Really solid advice for investments and entertaining, a hard combo to find nowadays. Highly recommended.
Listen to these guys
Tom and Don tell it like it is and help you understand how to invest your money wisely. No sales pitches. They genuinely care about your well-being. The world would be better if there were more people like the two of them. I’ve been investing (on my own) in the way they recommend for over 20 years and I’m very happy with the results.
The Financial Podcast You Need to Listen To
Looking for a personal finance podcast that isn’t trying to sell you something or have a get rich quick scheme, then look no further than Talking Real Money. Hosts Don and Tom bring their 100% fiduciary responsibilities to podcast and radio to help everyone get better with money while having the listener’s best interest in mind. These two have a great rapport and voices that are great to listen to. Whether or not you are a fan of their witty banter or not (I am) their advice will put you on the right path to live the financial life you deserve.
Sober realistic $ advice
I'm really glad that I found this podcast. They must be joking that they only have a small audience. If that's true then a lot of people are missing out. It's frank, honest advice at a time when it's never been more critical.
Less joking, more info
I like this pod, but these guys get too joke-y. They think they are comedians. They have good info, but interrupt themselves consistently to say something they think is funny - yet, personal finances & investing are kinda serious. I hope they tone down the ha-ha(s). :-/
In Tom and Don, veritas
Great show and I trust your information and sage guidance. Thank you for sharing your perspective.
I’ve been wanting a show like this for years!
Don and Tom’s podcast is so informative while being so entertaining that even my husband, who was never interested in financial matters before, is listening to the shows with me. Honest investment advice from two financially knowledgeable, fun guys, but it’s way more than just finances they discuss. It’s about having a plan. The one drawback about this show is that I find it hard to stop listening!
Love these guys!
Every day is something different and while I’m really well versed in this space, I always learn something. I never miss a podcast; great info and interesting perspectives from two guys with decades in the industry.
Forced to download OLD shows
Great show most of the time. My biggest complaint is that they keep posting OLD shows from many years ago. Financial news from 4 years ago is of no interest to me! Most times I am listening 10 minutes or longer before realizing that this is an antique podcast. Please put those OLD shows in an archive so is someone wants to listen to them, they can. Don’t force your listeners to download ancient history lessons!
One of the Best Finance shows!
Great advice every day. They provide simple strategies you can execute on your own or how to find a good advisor. Probably two us the best guys to listen to on investing in the market.
Great guidance guys!
Don and Tom give great guidance for FREE to anyone looking to learn more about personal finance management. Their bite size podcasts are a great way to learn about investing while on the go. Although these fine fellows are silver haired, they can easily connect with us younger listeners and make it funny and enjoyable without too many “dad jokes”. Keep up the great job gentleman!
Endless Source of Guidance
Everything I get the itch to throw my money at the latest new stock, I go back to Don and Tom who are my constant reminders of why passive indexing wins out every time. They are entertaining, and honestly interested in helping ALL investors! Thanks for the endless supply of dad jokes Tom!
Glad to have found it.
Been listening for several months, glad to hear someone talking common sense about finance and money. Listen to Clark Howard and Jill on Money, Don and Tom are a nice addition to that daily commute.
Common sense advice
Tom and Don put out an informative and entertaining podcast about common sense investing.I have been listening to Clark Howard for years and was ready to find another podcast that takes the next step looking deeper into investments. I happened to hear an ad on the Clark Howard podcast and I am happy I checked it out. Low cost investing advice for real money in the future! Warning: They do NOT like the Templeton Dragon Fund! TDF, lol
Great advise and entertaining
Always informative
Sound advice
Been listening for about 2 years. Love the podcast. Great advice for beginners savers and investors. I also had them review my 403b portfolio options and they basically said “great job, keep up the good work.” Never charged me. I would like them to recognize that most Vanguard mutual funds are just as tax efficient as their ETF’s (unique to Vanguard). But other than that, I really look forward to this podcast each weekday.
Entertaining and Informative
I have been listening to the podcast for about a year and I enjoy listening. Very informative.
Fun and Informative
Just started listening to these guys a few months ago and really enjoy their approach. Very honest easy to understand but also give enough detail to really get your portfolio together.They also know how to have a good time.
Sound personal investing advice in a fun, engaging way
These guys help you “stay the course” of sound investing and to cut through all the distractions and get rich quick messages in so much of the business and money media.
Great podcast
I have been listening for a few years to Tom and Don. They break the financial speak down in easy to understand terms. I recently started listening right before bed and that way get to remember one suggestion a day.
Great podcast
I’ve been listening for years. Tom and Don are two of the most honest financial radio guys you’ll find and they give evidence based advice.
Everybody should learn
Although I think the constant VT advice is a bit much vs S&P 500, everybody should understand what I just wrote. If you don't, you should listen and learn. The fiduciar advice is 100% spot on
