Retire Well by Bob Padgette, CFA, CIMA
Sixty million people participate in some type of retirement plan where they save money and make their own investment decisions. Some of these participants are very active in planning for the future, but few have a real understanding of how their decisions may impact twenty or more years of their life. This blog offers different ideas, thoughts, tips and whatever else the participants can use, but also how these same thoughts can be used by the companies and people  to help participants be more successful. It's not that complicated and hopefully it will simplify the whole process of getting people financially ready for retirement.
 

Investment Insight by Ted Ponko, CFA
If you're an investment professional looking for better ways to select and monitor mutual funds, or if you want to improve the portfolios you recommend to your clients, you've come to the right place. Asset allocation is one of the most important determinants of portfolio return, but it's probably the part that receives the least amount of thought. Right behind it is mutual fund evaluation. While most of us have evolved beyond simply counting stars, the vast majority of advisors are still relying on simple screening processes to pick funds through a process of elimination. That's where our investment insights come in. We'll offer thoughts, observations, and suggestions to help make sense out of an oftentimes puzzling investment process.
