Simply Money presented by Allworth Financial

On this episode of Simply Money presented by Allworth Financial, Bob and Brian break down one of the biggest misconceptions in investing: risk. What most people think is risk—market ups and downs—is actually just volatility. The real risk? Overspending your retirement, missing out on growth, or playing it too safe. Bob and Brian walk through the critical differences, offer real-life examples with hard math, and explain how a misread on risk can jeopardize your long-term wealth. Plus, they share insights on stock market bubbles, lessons from the Vanderbilt family's fall from fortune, and whether Roth conversions make sense when you don’t need the money yet.
