Description
In this episode we answer emails from MyContactInfo (x2), Chris, and Andrew. We discuss "The Myth of Private Equity" by Jeff Hooke, the paradox of skill and how it is applied in garden-based portfolio construction, volatility targeting as a decision making mechanism for investing and my gout, my podcast musical selections and the security of the Golden Ratio portfolio. And we throw in a yield curve inversion video. We do it all here.
