Rick Van Ness



Rick Van Ness is a successful private investor and retired executive who provides investor education through online videos, short books, and workshops. Rick has an engineering degree from Cornell University and a MBA from New York University. His background in engineering and business provides him with the excellent basis for understanding and teaching about investments and financial planning.

Rick provides unbiased education. He helps students understand the teachings of the most widely respected economists and financial planners. Students learn that investing smart is simple (not easy) and to take charge of their own finances and then strive for financial independence on their path to achieving a rich and fulfilling life.

Rick does not sell any types of investments or insurance, and does not provide individual investment advice. He educates you without self-interest (other than the joy he always gets from hearing from readers).
