Years helping everyday investors make informed decisions
A 50% loss needs a 100% gain just to break even
When you are near retirement, the math of market losses turns ugly fast. A downturn does not just dent your balance. It steals the years you no longer have to recover.
"The time to find out if your portfolio is architecturally sound is before, not after, the market event."
This class shows you how to know exactly where you stand, and what to fix, while there is still time.
The three-container portfolio that protects you before the fire
Most portfolios are one dimensional and fully invested. Here is the architecture that gives you control when it matters most.
Core
The diversified engine of long term growth, built to compound through full market cycles, not just friendly ones.
Non-Core
Targeted positions that add return potential without quietly stacking hidden, one dimensional risk.
Margin of Safety
Principal protected dollars set aside on purpose. The smoke detector you install before the house catches fire, not after.

The contrarian who grades portfolios for a living
Ron DeLegge has spent more than 25 years helping everyday investors build, grow, and protect their money. He is the inventor of the Portfolio Report Card, the one page grading system that has analyzed over $100 million in real portfolios. He is also the host of a top ranked YouTube investing channel.
"The prudent investor doesn't wait until the house has burned to the ground to install a margin of safety. They do it before the fire."
His philosophy is three words. Build. Grow. Protect. In this class he shows you how to do the part most investors skip.
