Building a diversified strategy in 2026
Can't make it live?
All good, you receive access to both the live chat and recording. But I strongly encourage you to show up. Otherwise, life gets in the way! Plus, it's more fun to hang out in the chat as we share resources.
Did you buy an S&P 500 Index Fund?
You may not be as diversified as you think.
Especially with the ballooning of Big Tech, the AI Bubble, and what feels like the ever-increasing fallibility of the US empire, it is high time to reassess our strategies and understand our options for diversification.
In this casual 45-minute convo, Amanda will cover:
What actually is diversification? Why does it matter?
What's going on in the US markets
International stocks are beating US stocks—why?
How to integrate investing internationally—including ACTUAL EXAMPLES of investments and strategies
Developed versus Emerging Markets
Other ways to consider getting diversified, like bonds and small stocks
We are all investors now
Due to the shift away from the pension model and with the erosion of the social safety net, our safe retirements hinge on our understanding of investment markets. A 401(k) or Roth IRA are not so much "retirement plans" as they are vessels for stock investments, and therefore, it is essential that we know how to protect ourselves as investors.
Meet your teacher!
Because I'm not just another #finfluencer!
Hi, I'm Amanda! You may know me as @dumpster.doggy on the internet.
My business is called Invested Development, and my aim is to make investing education accessible and fun. If you have felt left out of important conversations about money and investing, my work is for you!
After graduating with degrees in economics and communications, I went to work in investment management. I did this for about 6 and a half years. My primary role was called "investment counselor;" I was the person in direct communication with our high-net-worth clients, relaying portfolio strategy and answering all investing-related questions, on the spot, every day. To do this, I earned my Series 65 license, which is legally required for anyone acting as an investment adviser and providing recommendations.
But helping rich men get richer? Yeah, that was never going to be my life's calling. And now, with my business, Invested Development, I've taught over 25,000 students—mostly women—how to invest.
