The financial services industry - including banks, brokerages, and insurance companies - is unique among all others. Through effective advertising and marketing, it's been able to evade being painted with the brush that other underperforming industries have, and in most cases, their well-designed sales pitch has allowed them to effectively prey on the emotional desires of investors. Based on author David Loeper's nearly 25 years of experience with this industry's inner workings, Stop the Investing Rip-off reveals the real costs of the investments we make, details the false and misleading information sold to us, and discusses the devastating effects they can have on personal wealth. With this audiobook as your guide, you'll gain invaluable insights into the major segments of the financial-services industry, how they spin their offerings, and the questions you need to ask before committing any money to a financial product or service you may be interested in.
