Being a true passive investor is much harder than most people think. We are flooded with stories of "amazing opportunities" and "systemic risks".

Financial literacy is hard because you don't know what you don't know and people are not all that autodidacticy. Reddit r/personalfinance built a flow chart to help people [1] [2]. With that said, once you have found canonical resources [3] [4], it becomes much easier to be educated on how to passively invest.
