Regardless of your age, it's never too late to start investing and my guest today Andy Wang, the host of the Inspired Money Podcast and co-owner of the financial management company Runnymede Capital Management explains why.

Don't watch the news because it's so sensationalised. Instead, be intentional and deliberate with what you're doing and make an effort to filter out the noise.
