How To Score Eight Percent on Your Money (and maybe regret it) SB1524
Manage episode 420861954 series 2882924
Today high yield bonds are in the spotlight. A recent Wall Street Journal piece details how you can get eight percent currently in the bond market (which is a rate most stock investors would be happy to lock in). Why may this NOT be a good deal? Well, first you have to understand how bonds work. So, we'll explain that. Second, you'll have to understand the difference between buying a bond fund and a single bond. So, we'll also explain that. Third, we'll have to explain how many investors lose money because they don't understand concepts such as "risk premium." So, happy, we'll show you what that means. It's all things bonds on today's show!
But that's not all. Stacker Tom asked a GREAT question in the Stacking Benjamins basement the other day, because it's SUPER complicated. He asks about IRMMA, RMDs, and Medicare. Huh? We LOVE this question because it shows the depth of knowledge you'll need to have to get everything right...but also shows you how you do NOT need to know everything today/right now/immediately. We'll explain all of these terms on today's show (and also illuminate how frustrating the world of financial terms can be during our TikTok minute).
