Everyone has to know their limitations...
Ok I admit I had fun with the title. The Model Portfolio will go on. If anything my recent job instability is a reminder how important it is to get an alternate income stream for financial security. Its kind of funny how people will say how risky the financial markets are, how its gambling. Yet they are going "all in" and letting their entire future ride on one dice roll.... that they will have a job next paycheck.
