Meet with PWL Capital — https://pwlcapital.com/ PWL Team — https://pwlcapital.com/our-team/ Avoid Online Scams — https://pwlcapital.com/stay-safe-online/ Ben Felix or any PWL employee will never reach out to you on social media platforms or WhatsApp to give financial advice. These are scammers trying to commit fraud. In this episode, we begin with our first client story, featuring Dr. Simon Bérubé, an interventional cardiologist and professor at the Université de Sherbrooke. Simon shares how listening to Rational Reminder helped him approach personal finance with the same evidence-based mindset he brings to medicine. He discusses why financial planning extends far beyond investing, what led him to work with PWL Capital, and how expertise, integration, and oversight can become increasingly valuable as family finances grow more complex. He also reflects on the importance of transparency, intellectual honesty, and using money as a tool to support a meaningful life. Then, Ben Felix and Dan Bortolotti take a personal turn, discussing how they came to their investment philosophies and how they invest their own money. They trace their paths into evidence-based investing, explore how childhood experiences and research on happiness have shaped their views about wealth, and explain the reasoning behind their personal portfolios. From global equities and fixed income to private company ownership, homeownership, and cash reserves, they discuss the trade-offs behind decisions that may not be theoretically optimal but can still make sense for an individual. The conversation is a reminder that a good financial plan is about more than building the perfect portfolio—it is about understanding risk, opportunity cost, and what matters most in life.
