David Booth is the Chairman of Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA), a firm he co-founded in 1981. David led Dimensional as CEO and later Co-CEO until 2017. Under his leadership, DFA grew from a fledgling business operating out of David’s Brooklyn brownstone apartment to a global investment manager with more than $1 trillion in assets under management and 1,600 employees. In September, David published his story in Stay Calm: Learn to Embrace Uncertainty in Investing and Life, a book in which he provides lessons on investing and life to help people build the right mindset behind building wealth.
Rick Ferri, a long-time Boglehead and investment adviser, hosts this episode. The Bogleheads are a group of like-minded individual investors who follow the general investment and business beliefs of John C. Bogle, founder and former CEO of the Vanguard Group. It is a conflict-free community where individual investors reach out and provide education, assistance, and relevant information to other investors of all experience levels at no cost. The organization supports a free forum at Bogleheads.org, and the wiki site is Bogleheads® wiki.
Since 2000, the Bogleheads have held national conferences in major cities across the country. In addition, local Chapters and foreign Chapters meet regularly, and new Chapters form periodically. All Bogleheads activities are coordinated by volunteers who contribute their time and talent.
