Answering Your Questions:

1. Dalia asked a question from our What are mutual funds and ETFs? (Episode 04): Can you talk more about those fees behind index funds? Also, I’m wondering where exactly the money that a fund returns comes from. Is it an interest, companies’ profits or something else?
2. @maljones asked a question from What Are Preferred Stocks (Ep. 07): Are preferred stocks also called options? Are they the same thing or different concepts?
3. Jane Smith Carson asked: Other 'educators' talk crap about picking stocks, your advice makes me feel more confident to diversify my own portfolio. ETF.
