Jeff takes the pod solo this week with his guest Gary Zimmerman, Founder of MaxMyInterest.com. Gary explains how MaxMyInterest was born from his experience during the financial crisis. Jeff and Gary discuss Gary's thoughts on why inflation is here to stay and may well be an indicator of future social and political instability, and how a recession may be our only hope of quelling inflation.

Previously, Zimmerman was an investment banker at Citigroup, where he was a managing director and global head of strategic solutions for sovereign wealth funds, responsible for advising these funds on their direct investment activities globally.

This episode is sponsored by Helios Quantitative Research.

Founded in 2016, Helios Quantitative Research was created to equip Financial Advisors with new and relevant tools that drastically improve their client's asset management experience, expand their firm's margins, and challenge the old-guard legacy providers as well as the emerging robos of Silicon Valley. We believe that the majority of existing services available to Financial Advisors lack innovation, are too expensive, and enable commoditization in the wealth management industry.

Therefore, we created our own service category – the insourced CIO. Our unique team of skilled and experienced individuals partners with financial advisors across the globe to create, implement, monitor, and communicate quantitative investment strategies that challenge Modern Portfolio Theory and seek to remove as much emotion as possible from investing. In a short time, we have grown to influence over 800 Financial Advisors who collectively manage over $30 billion.
