BiggerPockets Money Podcast · Tuesday, August 4, 2026
Mindy Jensen addressed criticisms regarding her investment strategy, where 85% of her net worth is concentrated in five individual stocks, with 70% in two Elon Musk-backed companies. Scott Trench defended her transparency and long-term approach, noting that she has openly discussed her portfolio and blogged about it for years.
“Most of them are very positive and thanking you for really wonderful transparency and honesty about your position. But there's a couple of pretty clear criticisms from the thread.”
“One is your concentration in individual stocks. 85% concentration in five companies. And 70% concentration in just two Elon Musk backed companies at this point.”
“I didn't think that I had made a secret of the fact that Carl and I have most of our money in individual stocks.”
“This has been a years-long phenomenon and anyone who follows the Bigger Pockets Money podcast closely will know that.”
