Interview with Jim O’Donnell – Shortest Investment Book Ever

A couple days ago I had a call with Jim O’Donnell, Author of The Shortest Investment Book Ever. He is very nice guy with a really good heart. You can read my review of his Book to find out more about it, but if you are interested in hearing a bit of the interview, I created a podcast and actually put the audio into a video as well, so I could get it up on YouTube.

I need to work on a better system to record the audio, it was actually challenging to do the interview, because everything was digital and was chopping in and out. I used my Magicjack connected phone and recorded it with a free conference call service. I don’t know if Magicjack is to blame or not, but either way it is done now.

I did edit the interview a bit, cutting out some of the fluff and trying to just keep the meaty questions. I think it came out to about 20 minutes. If you are interested, this is what we talked about…

Why he wrote The Shortest Investment Book Ever
What people should do if they feel like they don’t have extra money to start investing

What types of people will get the most benefit from “The Shortest Investment Book Ever”
The negatives of some socially conscious funds
How to invest with your conscience
Should you invest in companies that financially support abortion, the gay-movement, alcohol and tobacco companies
A discussion about Matthew 10:16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves.”
