Making Cents of Retirement

Understanding Risk vs Return

Episode Notes

Typically, investors want to maximize their returns, but minimize their risk.  And while that "unicorn" investment of high returns doesn't necessarily exist, today, Vince Oldre of CFG Retirement Group goes through some strategies to get the best possible results.

Standard deviation is important - it's the amount that your investments can vary in volatility.  "How big are the bounces?"  Vince explains how to factor standard deviation in to your investments.

There are many tools on the Internet, including Morningstar and Yahoo Finance.  However, there's a catch to looking at 10-year returns, now, in 2021.  Vince and Jag talk about what that is.
