In this episode, Simon breaks down a type of risk that often flies under the radar for everyday investors—counterparty risk. Whether you're dealing with a brokerage, bank, crypto exchange, or even a gold custodian, you're exposed to the risk that the other party might not hold up their end of the deal. Plus, we touch on lessons from great investors like Bill Nygren and Stan Druckenmiller—including the importance of maintaining conviction in your investment thesis and having the humility to change your mind. We wrap up with a look at current retail investor allocations and whether markets have become a bit too complacent after a strong year for equities.
