Recently, my wife asked why I thought real estate was such a BAD investment when others she knows call it the BEST they've ever made. Hearing it framed that way struck a different chord. And rather than quickly defending my position with data and facts, I found myself reconsidering the question entirely. In today's episode, I share how to evaluate investments in the real world, what separates good investments from bad ones, and why some popular metrics can mislead. If you've ever wondered why an investment looks great paper but doesn't feel right—or why others swear by strategies you'd never touch—this episode will give you a clearer framework for thinking about your own portfolio. *** 📆 BOOK A CALL: For two decades, we've have helped hundreds of families across the U.S. plan smarter retirements—from tax strategies and investments to income and legacy planning.
