Fisher Investments' Founder, Ken Fisher, Debunks "Retirees Should Be Conservative"

Fisher Investments’ founder, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Investment Officer, Ken Fisher, reviews a chapter in his best-selling book, Debunkery, which challenges conventional wisdom that retirees should have “conservative” portfolios. Ken says many investors see a conservative approach as having more exposure to “less risky” investments-such as bonds and cash-and less exposure to stocks. However, thanks to ever evolving medical advancements, Ken says individuals are living longer than ever before-meaning this “conservative” approach may actually be riskier than many think.
As Ken explains, it can be easy for investors underestimate their time horizons and the growth required to sustain their lifestyle in the long-term. While traditionally “conservative” portfolios may be less volatile in the short-term, Ken suggests that increased stock exposure may help investors-and their spouses-avoid running out of money later in life.

Yes, medicine improves, but our diets dont always improve and food industry doesnt help much w all the refined, processed foods they create. This results in more addicted, more overweight humans w shorter life spans and higher rate of disease. But I get it vs a long time ago. We actually need to do more in the area of.... pre ven ta tive medicine....diet, sleep, nutrition, lower stress. I said it as you would...emphasizing a key word there. I get it though...good time to be alive and keep investing and also dont waste money on junk.
