Ibbotson Claims Annuities Could Be Better Than Bonds

Roger Ibbotson, financial researcher and co-author of one the standard references for capital market returns, now claims that annuities could beat out bonds going forward. Today, Paul and Jim pump the breaks and explain why the kinds of bonds and annuities being compared make these claims misleading and dangerous for investors. Paul provides some of his own research to fill in the gaps. Later in the episode, Jim talks about how much money is flowing into ESG and what people are doing to get a piece of it.
