## Resource

On this episode of Simply Money presented by Allworth Financial, Bob and Brian explain what the Dow, S&P 500, and NASDAQ really measure—and why understanding the differences can make you a more informed investor. They also discuss why so many retirees struggle to shift from saving to spending, get the latest on the Greater Cincinnati housing market, and answer listener questions on making a $1 million 401(k) last, inherited stock, and when a trust may make more sense than a simple will.
