Alternative Assets in Retirement Plans: Good or Bad Idea?

In this episode of Something More, Chris Boyd is joined by Jeff Perry and Russ Ball to unpack the hidden world of private equity and private credit. Following President Donald Trump signing an executive order that clears a path for alternative assets to be added into 401k’s, the trio discuss how these off- exchange assets differ from familiar public stocks and bonds highlighting the trade-off between potentially higher returns and the pitfalls of illiquidity, opaque valuations, and concentrated deal flow. Chris, Jeff and Russ debate the risks of giving everyday retirement savers access to cryptocurrency, and private credit, especially when most investors lack the tools and experience to understand the risks and assess these investments properly.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
