The Problem with Investing in Timber

On this week’s Hanson McClain’s Money Matters, Scott and Pat talk about the problem with timber as an investment and the importance of diversification.

Scott and Pat take a call from a man who wants to know if he should take his pension as a lump sum or as a monthly annuity. A caller has a mortgage of $500,000 and wants to know if she should use her 403(b) to pay it down. A 50-year-old police officer would like to retire and wants to know if he should use his retirement savings to pay off his mortgage. A caller lost his wife and needs advice on what to do with the proceeds from a life insurance policy.
