With all the talk about small-cap stocks, index investing, and private markets for the masses, one needs to understand that retirement investing is about life’s most precious asset, time, not gold. Time is the commodity in highest demand.
Sure, time may be on your side when you’re young and can ride out big hits to stocks. But in retirement, you have less time, and that ratchets up the pressure.
It can be near impossible to stomach volatility like the markets have endured lately when you’re planning a big trip to Paris and know the deposit is due. Stick with a plan that’s right for you and block out the noise.
