We’re all wired to invest for the future, but when it comes to personal finance few of us know how. How much should I save? How much risk can I take? How does risk tolerance change with age? How can I get the most while risking the least? How complex does it have to be? Could I really do everything I need with just two funds?
2-Funds for Life is a quest to answer these questions and show definitively that simple approaches can match, beat, or even trounce more complex ones.
