Investing is one of the best ways to build wealth, but that assumes you’re making smart investments. If you aren’t careful, it can be an equally good way to squander a fortune. Thankfully, there is more investing information than ever today, with articles, TV shows, and podcasts to keep you up to speed.

We’ll take a look at some of the best investing podcasts, what makes them stand out and why you need to add them to your podcast feed.

BiggerPockets

The BiggerPockets podcast has been around since 2013 and is seen as one of the best real estate investing podcasts. It features expert interviews, actionable tips, advice and strategies to help build your real estate portfolio. If you are interested in real estate investing, this podcast is a great place to start.

This podcast covers topics like house flipping, rental properties, wholesaling, and property management. And for those who are just getting started and want something a little friendlier to newbies, they also have the Real Estate Rookie Podcast to help you learn the basics.

Stacking Benjamins

This podcast is co-hosted by Joe Saul-Sehy and Josh Bannerman, a former financial advisor and certified financial planner, respectively. This show focuses on topics that will help you build your personal fortune. The hosts talk about saving, investing, wealth building, and risk management. The hosts frequently feature guests, which might include financial advisors, authors, and entrepreneurs.

We Study Billionaires

If someone is a billionaire, they’re probably doing something right, aren’t they? Such is the idea behind the We Study Billionaires podcast, as it explores the fascinating minds of Warren Buffett, Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel, and many more. Preston Psyh and Stig Brodersen host the podcast, and it also gets help from several other hosts.

On the show, the hosts dive deep into topics like value investing, stock analysis and macroeconomic trends. They also feature experts from several fields, including economists, authors and financial professionals.

Invest Like the Best

Do you want to invest like the best? If so, join host Patrick O’Shaughnessy as he has in-depth conversations with investing, business, technology and entrepreneurship experts. Not strictly about investing, the show also covers broader themes such as decision-making, mental models, and the habits of successful people. Successful investing often requires more than carefully selecting one or two investments. It calls for a more holistic approach, and that’s where this show delivers.

The Peter Schiff Show

Peter Schiff is an economist, stockbroker and financial commentator. He is the CEO and chief global strategist of Euro Pacific Capital Inc., a full-service fee-only investment advisor and asset management company. Schiff gained widespread notoriety when he made predictions about the 2008 financial crisis, including a forecast of crashing real estate prices. His podcast, The Peter Schiff Show, is a popular podcast focused on economics, finance and politics. He also discusses topics such as inflation, monetary policy, interest rates and cryptocurrencies.

ChooseFI

Launched in 2016, ChooseFI is a newcomer compared to some of the podcasts on this list. However, it’s worth mentioning due to its focus on achieving financial independence. Generally, investing is the primary vehicle for achieving financial independence, whether they invest in stocks, real estate, or some other asset. This podcast, hosted by Brad Barrett, covers topics such as index funds, career development and entrepreneurship, taxes, and financial planning.

Planet Money

This NPR podcast launched during the 2008 financial crisis. While it does cover investing, at times, the show aims to help people understand the economy and how it impacts our everyday lives. It has a team of hosts, and they often cover stories that seemingly have nothing to do with money and then find a way to tie them back to the economy. They also frequently cover what they call indicators, which focus on things like inflation and the yield curve.

Chat with Traders

If trading is your cup of tea, then the Chat with Traders podcast is for you. Hosted by Tessa Dao and Ian Cox, this podcast features conversations with successful traders and other important figures in the world of trading. Episodes are released weekly and cover practical insights, strategies, and the experiences guests have had with trading. Each guest generally has a different area of expertise. Those could include stocks, options, futures, forex and cryptocurrencies.
