Listener Reviews

I have been listening to Don and Tom for about a year now and I’m glad someone recommended Talking Real Money to me. The financial advice from both of these gentlemen is something you should listen to and take heed of. Thank you Tom and Don for the service you are providing to the folks who listen to your podcast and radio show.

If I only had one financial podcast to listen to, it would be Talking Real Money. I started off with Dave and Suzy, but then I found Talking real money and I knew this is the one. These old dudes don’t talk over your head, they make common sense and don’t predict the future. I have read several books from other podcasters and am waiting for a Tom and Don audiobook. By the way I’m an old dude too and appreciate your skills. Thanks

I’ve listened to this show since I heard it mentioned on another podcast who’s name involves putting 100 dollar bills into piles and I’ve been really pleased with what I’ve heard. I’ve probably listened to about 20 episodes since last weekend and they are truly entertaining and enlightening. I recommended this podcast to a group of 20 somethings at my firm who I was leading a financial well-being brown bag for because the information presented is clear, approachable, entertaining, and most importantly, rock solid. I’ve been looking for something like this since Bob Brinker retired and am glad I’ve found it. Thanks for what you’re doing and keep it up!

Personal finance industry is loaded with dishonesty, hype, misinformation and scare tactics. I love how Tom and Don tell it like it is. They don’t try and sell you anything. They just try and give you honest simple advice and do it with a little humor.

Thanks guys. I need your podcast to keep me grounded. I need your podcast to remind me to stay the course.. I enjoy listening daily-

Don and Tom provide “real” financial advice. The information is logical and sound. Everyone should invest all their serious money according to the allocations and avenues they suggest. If you want to buy individual stocks only do it with money you are ok losing...just like playing a hand of blackjack or betting on a game. I asked a question on their website and it was answered thoughtfully on the air within a week. Really glad I found this podcast and will be telling family and friends about it. Keep up the great work guys. I listen everyday when I’m driving for work.

This is a podcast that makes sense and the information provided rings true. There is SO much financial noise out there that having something clear like talking real money is refreshing and very helpful. Thanks

Don’t listen to the haters guys ! I love the show ! There are always great takeaways from each and every episode. Keep rocking !

Looking for a simplified solution to invest your retirement money? This is the podcast to listen to and not worry about choosing the wrong investments. Great qualified advice from Tom and Don with many years of experience. They make it easy so even those without any knowledge or desire to spend hours of time researching which mutual funds to select, they will provide you with simple inexpensive funds to give you a well diversified portfolio. Only wish I would have discovered them years ago - it would have saved me some costly mistakes.

Great advice and they keep it entertaining

Excellent advice and lessons learned each time I tune in.

Love the Q&A. Happy to hear the passive investment community growing

Tom & Don are easy to listen to & I think they give great advice. I appreciate their input and am thankful for this podcast.

A very informative and understandable show that provides sound and actionable advice. Very worth listening to on a regular basis.

I’ve learned so much from this podcast, thank you!

Finally someone who can make finances interesting!

Wow. Super informative and really enjoy Don and Tom.

I have been listening to Tom and Don and Talking Real Money for years. Honest, logical, and meaningful advice. And they make it fun!

I have learned so much since I started listening to this! Very informative and fun to listen to!

I’ve been listening to these guys for a while now and thoroughly impressed by the advice they give. Sensible, actionable thoughts that just about anybody can implement for long-term success. Definitely recommend.

I’ve been listening for a few years now once/twice per week. I’m now at the point that I can predict their answers to questions (well, the easier ones) and this has better prepared me with my portfolio decisions. I bought the Blueprint snapshot and loved the analysis/advice. I made a few adjustments out of the session. I highly recommend this podcast and look forward to more. Keep up the good work.

I learned about Don and Tom through Paul Merriman’s podcast and have enjoyed listening to their very knowledgeable advice...keep up the good work!

Tom and Don are looking out for individual investors and give great advice. If you are a day trader you won’t like this podcast because this podcast is for investors not gamblers.

This is my favorite podcast by far and is without question the best investing podcast in the world! Great advice and very entertaining at the same time! I have learned so much listening to Tom and Don. Great job guys!
