🌟 GPT of The Week

Get Personalized Investment Guidance

Transform your investment strategy with the Buffett Investment Tool GPT, which offers you tailored advice based on Warren Buffett’s investing principles.

Buffett Investment Tool GPT

What It Can Do

  • Analyze whether your current portfolio is well-diversified, performs optimally, & matches your risk tolerance

  • Recommend stocks that match your experience level, goals, & risk preference

  • Share latest financial news, market data, & trends

  • Simplify financial jargon & concepts

  • Help you develop effective strategies for long-term growth

  • Adapt advice based on your feedback & changing market conditions

How To Use It

To get started, you can either:

  • Ask your own question

  • Select the “What would you like to know about my investment profile?” option, which will then ask you (& provide ideas) about your investing experience level, investment goals, & risk tolerance

Ask follow-up, clarifying, or opportunity-focused questions, e.g.,:

  • “How can I use [this information/recent market developments] to enhance my portfolio?”

  • “What financial metrics should I look at when evaluating a company’s stock?”

  • “Are there any undervalued stocks or sectors worth considering right now?”

  • “Can you explain [topic]?

  • “What are the best budgeting practices to maximize my investment potential?”

  • “What strategies can protect my investments during a market downturn?”

  • “How might upcoming economic events impact [the stock market/my portfolio]?”

To protect your data when getting personalized advice, do NOT share:

  • Sensitive personal information (e.g., your full name, social security number, home address, or other identifiable information)

  • Account or credit card numbers, bank details, or login credentials

  • Exact monetary amounts or your net worth

Instead of sharing specific monetary amounts, share:

  • The % allocation of each type of investment (e.g., stocks, bonds, & mutual funds)

  • Performance % or growth rates

  • Relative % or figures (e.g., instead of “$10,000 in stock A”, say “25% of portfolio in stock A”)

When uploading a screenshot to get more personalized advice:

  1. Take a screenshot of the part of your portfolio that shows the holdings & performance details.

  2. Blur or edit out all sensitive information (e.g., personal identifiers, account details, exact monetary amounts, & anything you want kept confidential)

  3. Highlight or circle key information (e.g., investment names & %’s)

By asking detailed questions and following these data guidelines, you’ll confidently make well-informed investing choices that propel you towards your financial success.

💡 Quick Guide

Create Anything You Can Imagine With These 7 Free AI Video Tools

We get it. Combining multiple AI video tools gets pricey!

Which is why we tested tons of free and freemium* AI video tools to determine our favorites… and then made this YouTube video for you.

*These tools are either completely free, allow you to create a limited number of videos for free each month, provide free credits, or offer you free access to certain features.

  • Viggle: Mix, animate, & move static character images

  • RunwayML: Replace any character in any scene with inpainting

  • CapCut: Enhance the final result via upscaling

  • Took a character we animated in Viggle

  • Put it over the animations we got from Pixverse

  • Added some sound design & lip syncing in Pika Labs

  • Create the song for it in the (also free) AI music generator, Udio
