Our UAE local chapter is in the news

Post by Barry Barnitz »

Hi:
Our UAE Bogleheads® local chapter is highlighted in the following news article.

News article: Invest like a Boglehead and build a low-cost portfolio of index funds
The Bogleheads community, which was founded in 1998 in the United States, claims anyone can become a successful investor with very little effort by buying low cost, broadly diversified index funds that they hold long-term. The principle of this is that the stock market – although often volatile – grows over time, and therefore offers good returns to investors willing to wait.

Here in the Emirates, a group of followers of the philosophy founded the nonprofit personal finance community, the UAE Bogleheads Chapter, three years ago, and have met regularly ever since to share what they have learned with others.
If you have never visited, here is the chapter's home site: COMMON SENSE PERSONAL FINANCE AND INVESTING, The Bogleheads® UAE Local Chapter.

regards,
Additional administrative tasks: Financial Page bogleheads.org. blog; finiki the Canadian wiki; The Bogle Center for Financial Literacy site; La Guía Bogleheads® España site.

The Bogleheads reach is international. One of our foreign Local Bogleheads chapters (the Dubai UAE Bogleheads Chapter) was in the news. Nice story. The headline is:
Invest like a Boglehead and build a low-cost portfolio of index funds

Enjoy! Happy Thanksgiving to all my Boglehead friends.

^^^ FYI - You had a duplicate post, which I've removed. There were no replies.

The Dubai chapter is in the wiki: Bogleheads® local chapters (Outside the US)

Also, the forum: Master Thread for UAE Bogleheads

I merged Mel Lindauer's post into here. The combined thread is in the Investing - Theory, News & General forum (news).
