Jim at the Goodlettsville office sent Paul a summit for younger investors held by a company that pushes value-based investing. The truth is companies profit from young investors who want to make a difference. Paul cautions young investors trying to make a difference in the world with their money because companies will market products that seem to make a difference, but the money doesn’t actually go to the cause; it goes to the fund company.

Later in the episode, Paul talks about a conversation he had with an investor who was leaving to invest somewhere else.
