Asset Location: Where You Invest, Where You Live, What You Can Access
Money For the Rest of Us
Why People Don't Move to Better Places
J. David Stein summarizes research on location decisions, costs of moving, and trade-offs between current cost and future opportunity.
In this episode, we look at asset location, how to decide which investments belong in taxable, tax-deferred, and tax-free accounts, how where we live shapes the opportunities available to us, and how capital ultimately expands our choices.
