We are all juggling two financial forces. The first is living our life today, and the second is securing our future. The hard part is finding balance. You can’t take money with you to the grave, but you also must have a surplus ready for when you need it most. If we put too much focus on one, the other falls apart. That’s where Yin and Yang can benefit our financial lives.

The unexpected is not limited to financial markets. Life is full of surprises, ranging from mildly annoying mistakes or mishaps to life-altering crises.
