Ep.#115: Risk & Reward with Ben Carlson, Timeless Investing Lessons

In this episode of The Hawaii Retirement Show, host Jason Cutitta, CFP® is joined by Ben Carlson, CFA, Director of Institutional Asset Management at Ritholtz Wealth Management, co-host of the Animal Spirits podcast, and author of Risk & Reward. Ben joins the show to discuss timeless investing lessons around risk, diversification, market history, investor behavior, and long-term decision-making.

The conversation covers why simple investing is not always easy, the difference between investing and gambling, the role of rebalancing and diversification, and why the stock market and the economy do not always move together. Jason and Ben also discuss how these lessons apply to retirees and pre-retirees who need to invest through retirement while balancing growth, income, and risk.
