Are you still using rules like “100 minus your age” to guide your investments? In this episode of Not Just Numbers, Mike and Madison unpack a Wall Street Journal article featuring a Yale professor’s new approach to portfolio allocation.
Instead of focusing on age alone, this framework considers your full financial picture—income, savings, future earnings, and risk tolerance.
Mike shares his real-world perspective on where the theory works—and where it falls short—while emphasizing a key takeaway: consistent saving and smart financial habits matter more than finding the “perfect” portfolio.
