Episode notes
Vet Advisors With Audits And Custody
- Verify your RIA uses third‑party custodians and provides audited performance and company financials.
- Avoid advisors who have custody of your assets or only publish hypothetical returns.
Past Wins May Be Luck, Not Skill
- Exceptional past returns don't prove repeatable skill; time and luck are indistinguishable without extremely long data.
- You need many decades of data to statistically separate skill from luck.
Diversify And Rebalance Systematically
- Diversify globally across asset categories (large, small, value, international) to capture different premiums.
- Rebalance using fixed income buffers to buy equities after sharp downturns.
