In this episode, Tone speaks directly to one of the biggest reasons people never start investing — fear. Fear of losing money. Fear of making mistakes. Fear of risking what little they have. With a calm, honest, one-on-one conversation, Tone breaks down where this fear comes from, why doing nothing is actually risky, and how beginners can start investing safely without pressure or overwhelm. This episode is designed to replace fear with clarity, confidence, and small, actionable steps.
