Chief Investment Strategist, The Freeport Society
Starting at his grandfather’s knee when he was just 10 years old, Charles Sizemore has pursued a career dedicated to helping people achieve financial freedom through smart investing.
Charles has advised multiple hedge funds globally and managed over $120 million in assets.
He holds a Master’s Degree in Finance and Accounting from the London School of Economics and a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance with an International Emphasis from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, where he graduated Magna Cum Laude and as a Phi Beta Kappa scholar.
As a keen market observer, economist, investment analyst, and prolific writer, Charles has been a repeat guest on Fox Business, quoted in Barron’s, and featured in numerous well-reputed publications and financial websites, including MarketWatch, TheStreet, InvestorPlace, MSN Money, Seeking Alpha, Stocks, Futures and Options Magazine, The Daily Reckoning, Benzinga, Minyanville, and Investment International.
While Charles enjoys playing basketball and his grandfather’s old saxophone (which he is also teaching his son), his passion lies in finding investment opportunities that become safe havens for investors navigating this Age of Chaos. He is intolerant of deception, misdirection, and the endless eroding of the ideals that once made America great. He is fiercely determined to help investors regain their lives, their liberty, and their wealth.
