Robin Bowerman is the Head of Corporate Affairs at Vanguard Investments Australia and the Vice Chair of the SMSF Association. Vanguard was founded by one of the legends of investing, Jack Bogle. Robin chats with us about the revolutionary style of index investing pioneered by Bogle, the common mistakes made by novice share traders, the Cost Matters Hypothesis and why humans are not emotionally wired to be great investors.
