Two different headlines, both in the news recently.
I’m not sharing this to judge anyone in it.
Honestly, I don’t think it’s about how smart or dumb anyone was. I think it’s about wanting someone else to have the answer, especially when you’re tired of figuring it out alone.
When I say “does this fit into your bigger financial picture,” I really just mean, do you know what this money is actually for, and how it’s supposed to grow? Or does it just sound good?
Sometimes it’s the boring stuff that does. Not the fastest fund, not the highest promised return, just something you actually understand.
Returns matter. Structure and transparency do too.
