It’s easy to be taken in by half-truths in the financial world without understanding the whole truth. Troy breaks down some of these commonly held beliefs to provide clarity and advice for your financial future. He dives into misconceptions about market losses, portfolio fees, mortgage interest rates, and diversification strategies. Through real-life examples and expert analysis, you’ll learn valuable insights to help you navigate your retirement planning with confidence.

One of the most memorable takeaways from the episode is the analogy used to describe diversification: "You don't want all your eggs in one basket, but you want all your baskets on the same table." This means diversifying your investments while keeping them within a manageable framework, making it easier for you and your loved ones to handle your affairs as needed.

 

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

  • “The market always goes up in the long-run.”
  • “The fees are less than one percent.”
  • “It’s better to invest money than pay off your mortgage.”
