Dr Richard Smith - RiskSmith | Risk management the primary tool in successful investing

Are capital markets more of a simulation than reality? How important is it to understand that we are being manipulated by the media, Wall Street and other players to have our attention distracted and be part of their business models not ours. Dr Richard Smith has built his work around understanding risk. He’s a Berkeley Mathematician and PhD in System Science – and the founder and CEO of RiskSmith, a risk analytics platform for independent investors, and the author of The Risk Rituals newsletter.
