Protecting ourselves from fraud and abuse
Welcome to the truth about your future with Ric Edelman. You know, this show is all about personal finance, and that's the reason we talk about investing on this program. I mean, how can you not talk about investing if it's a show about personal finance? So, in your efforts to pay attention to the long term, in your efforts to stay focused on what really matters, we've got to recognize that it is sometimes a little treacherous. We need to protect ourselves and our efforts to achieve wealth. And that means protecting ourselves from fraud and abuse. Call Mark, from Madison, WI, asks how my new show works.

Investing, not Speculating in Digital Assets
You're listening to The Truth About Your Future. I'm getting a lot of questions from folks, a lot of emails over the past several weeks pertaining to the war in Ukraine wondering, gee, the Russian stock market is closed. This occurred because the economic sanctions caused Russian stock prices to fall 40% in value, and then Putin shut down the exchanges. The financial markets are closed in Russia because of the economic crisis that the war has created, not just in Ukraine, of course, but also, in fact, in Moscow. And it has led to some folks writing to me asking Ric, could that ever happen here? Could our stock market ever close?
