A journalist by profession, Richard has been an active investor since 1990, when he passed the Canadian Securities Course with honours --and celebrated by assembling a portfolio of undervalued stocks using Benjamin Graham’s The Intelligent Investor. Richard went on to earn the Canadian Investment Manager (CIM) designation and was editor of Investor’s Digest of Canada between 1993 and 1998. In 1998, Richard moved to the Financial Post, where he edited investment articles and wrote the Independent Investor column for many years. Richard and his wife both accepted buyout packages in 2013 and 2011, respectively, and since then Richard has managed their retirement portfolios. Their average annual compound returns have consistently outperformed those of professional money managers.
