Why Talking About Investing with Friends and Family Can Make You a Better Investor
One of the most effective—and often overlooked—ways to grow as an investor is by talking about it. Not pooling money into a group fund, but gathering with friends, family, or even curious kids to share strategies, ask questions, and learn from each other.

Whether you’re just starting out or have years of experience, engaging in regular conversations about investing offers real benefits:

• Discover new opportunities you might have missed
• Deepen your understanding of how markets work
• Stay encouraged when things get rocky
• Boost your decision-making and returns
• Teach younger generations about money

While joining or forming an investment club won’t guarantee better returns, it can dramatically increase your confidence and knowledge. Just remember: what works for one person may not work for another—everyone has different goals, timelines, and risk tolerance.

Having helped people around the world build successful investment groups, here are a few best practices I always recommend:

 

Establish Clear Group Rules

Set ground rules that create structure and respect. These can include how the group communicates, whether members share exact dollar amounts, and what’s expected in terms of attendance and participation. This builds a safe space where people feel comfortable speaking up and learning.

 

Keep It Fun

Investing doesn’t have to feel like homework. Add some excitement with friendly challenges—like rewarding the member with the best quarterly return—or rotating meeting spots. One club I supported in Asia turned their meetups into something to look forward to, with dinners, games, and group outings.

 

Focus on Learning

The best investment clubs aren’t just about making money. They’re about understanding why something might be a good investment. Encourage members to explain their choices: “I bought shares in this company because I believe its new product will take off.” This sparks discussion, helps the whole group learn, and creates an environment where people support each other’s growth.

 

Investment clubs are one of the most enjoyable and effective ways to grow your wealth, your confidence, and your financial community. Whether you’re learning from others or teaching what you’ve picked up along the way, don’t underestimate the power of talking about money.
