“Keep your focus through ups and downs and wild swings.”

“Develop a plan of attack and stick with it.”

“Take advantage of the resources and technology available.”

“Don’t be afraid to consult with a professional.”

These are all bits of advice you might get from a golf pro during a lesson at the local country club. But they are also sound pieces of guidance when it comes to investing.

Schwab recently launched a new website at www.SchwabFilms.com designed for people with a passion for all things golf and investing that underscores the similarities between the two.

In addition to a series of golf and investing videos from well-known golf instructor Hank Haney and several investing experts from Schwab, the centerpiece of the site is a new online episodic documentary series called “The Mentor Project” which pairs PGA TOUR® legends with up-and-coming stars to explore how golf advice and guidance affects the careers of young players.

“The Mentor Project” gives golf fans a behind-the-scenes look at a series of very candid conversations between some of the favorite players on the Champions Tour® and PGA TOUR, including Tom Lehman and Kevin Streelman, Corey Pavin and Jeff Overton, and father and son Jay Haas and recent winner of the TOUR Championship and FedEx Cup Bill Haas.

More information about The Mentor Project and the www.SchwabFilms.com site is available in a recent press release. We will be adding additional content to the site over time. Take a look and let us know what you think!
