A FEW THINGS YOU MAY BE WONDERING
Before you come aboard.
What if I’m completely new to investing?+
Start with the Stream. It introduces investing fundamentals, broad index funds, and long-term habits. The start-here path, learning library, and weekly calls give you room to ask questions and develop your understanding.
Do I need to learn options?+
No. The Stream focuses on passive investing and the River on understanding individual businesses. The Rapids introduces options for people who want to study a more involved approach. You can choose the path that fits your interests.
How much time should I set aside?+
It depends on your experience and chosen path. Passive investing generally involves less ongoing attention than individual stock research or active options strategies. Make room to learn the foundations before committing capital, and move at your own pace.
Aren’t options risky?+
Yes. Options can involve substantial losses and obligations, including assignment. The education covers trade mechanics, position sizing, and downside analysis. River Edge can help you examine a trade, but software and a framework do not remove investment risk.
What is included in the membership?+
River Edge options analysis software, live weekly calls with Jeff, the full learning path, a start-here guide, and the private investing community. The Stream, River, and Rapids are stages within one membership.
Will someone manage my money for me?+
No. River of Wealth is an educational community. You learn frameworks and tools, and make your own decisions. It does not provide personalized investment, financial, or tax advice or manage your portfolio.
