Wall Street Legend Jim O’Shaughnessy is Back On ‘Panic With Friends’ – A Calm Voice in Turbulent Times

My good friend Jim O’Shaughnessy is back for a third appearance on Panic with Friends. He was my very first guest on the show way back in March of 2020, right at the start of the Global Pandemic. He wasn’t panicking then, and he’s not panicking now. I wanted to check in with Jim on his spider tingly markets sense. You will really enjoy his insights. 

One thing the ‘yutes’ need to keep in mind during this market turmoil is that they’re “time billionaires”.  You definitely want to exchange that time for risk. 

I hope you enjoy our wide-ranging conversation on life, family, investing, and the markets.

You can listen to the podcast here on Spotify or Apple podcast and now all the episodes are on my YouTube channel as well. You can click subscribe on any of these channels and get the podcast alert each week.
