Long Story Short Social Security, AI Investing & When Growth Shifts to Protection
Social Security going broke? AI stocks too hot to handle? Wondering when you should stop chasing growth and start protecting what you've built?
Adam and Andy discuss three questions they're hearing frequently from clients right now. First, they break down what "going broke" actually means for Social Security (it's not as dire as the headlines make it sound). Then they throw cold water on the AI investment frenzy and explain why you're probably already more exposed than you think. Finally, they introduce a framework for thinking about when your portfolio should shift from growth mode to protection mode.
