## Resource

Most investors are scared about the same thing: what if I invest and the market crashes tomorrow? Ben Carlson is author of the popular investing blog A Wealth of Common Sense and Director of Institutional Asset Management at Ritholtz Wealth Management. In his new book Risk and Reward, he looks at history's biggest market crashes, and what they can teach us about investing when the future feels uncertain. With Damo recovering from his injuries, personal finance YouTuber and friend of the podcast Toby Newbatt kindly steps in to co-host alongside Timeyin.

There will be no additional charge for you. Remember investments can fall and rise - and past performance is no guarantee of future results. Other fees may apply. Your money is at risk. This is not financial advice. The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life. —----------- Ben’s blog: https://awealthofcommonsense.com/  Damien goes into more detail about his accident here:: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKvUB0ks2BU⁠
