-- Dr. Linda’s approach to investment education emphasizes stock picking as opposed to passive investment vehicles like ETFs and index funds. Her philosophy of “learning by doing” has resonated with women from diverse backgrounds. She’s dubbed as a “rising star in stock picking” due to her exceptional skill in identifying high-performing stocks. Her influence has also reached global platforms, including speaking engagements at the United Nations

For her entrepreneurial excellence and contribution to female financial empowerment, Dr. Linda Pajoel was honored as Scotia Bank Female Founder for December 2024 by the Kitchener-Waterloo Chamber of Commerce. This acknowledgment holds great importance as it reflects a shift toward recognizing women’s contributions in traditionally male-dominated fields. 

Dr. Linda Pajoel’s “DIY” Investing Approach

As Founder and CEO of Investornomy, Dr. Linda is on a mission to empower young women to achieve financial freedom. Through her all-encompassing stock investing program, she equips women with the knowledge and skills to invest with confidence. 

Stock Investment—A Path to Female Financial Empowerment 

Dr. Linda believes that women from every walk of life, be it stay-at-home mothers, young professionals or even students, can learn to invest strategically in stocks. Her own unconventional journey towards becoming a stock trailblazer is proof. “When you look at the investment world, most of the role models are men. It’s vital for women to see representation and know they can succeed here too,” she says.

Dr. Linda’s program combines years of personal experience, extensive research, and hands-on practice into a practical, easy-to-follow curriculum. She provides free training as well as advanced paid mentorship programs for aspiring investors. 

Dentist to Successful Stock Investor: Dr Linda’s Entrepreneurial Journey 

Originally trained as a dentist in Nigeria, Dr. Linda came to Canada on a full scholarship to pursue a PhD. in public health from the University of Waterloo. However, Dr. Linda found a major disconnect between her aspirations for community-led public health work and Canada’s research-oriented approach. Hence, she dropped out of her course, to focus on building a business that would allow her to have a real impact within the community. Her entrepreneurial journey began with guiding international students to secure scholarships and financial aid. 

Her investment journey began in 2008 when she bought her first stock through a wealth management company. However, soon in 2009, the stock market crashed and Dr. Linda incurred substantial financial losses, which deterred her from the stock market for years. A few years later, following the success of her student mentorship program, Dr. Linda decided to reapproach stock investing but this time with much more research. She fully immersed herself in learning the tips and tricks of sound, long-term stock investment strategies. Her hard work paid off as her investment strategies proved successful, helping secure her financial future. Her personal portfolio includes stakes in industry giants such as Google and Berkshire Hathaway

Recognizing the Importance of Women in Finance

Through Investernomy, Dr.Linda is determined to teach women like herself how to get a headstart on investments early in their lives. Her approach prioritizes long-term financial stability. Her “DIY” approach coaches on ways to make sound investment decisions and avoid major financial losses. 

Due to her focus on long-term value rather than short-term gains, Dr. Linda has consistently achieved above-average returns. Unlike speculative trading, she advocates for disciplined, future-proof investing strategies that prioritize stability and growth.
