DIVERSIFY TO SIMPLIFY
Most investors have cleaned up the chaos: index funds, rollover IRAs, maybe a couple of rentals, maybe one private deal. It feels organized, but it can still be one big bet on the same market outcomes. This article explains why owning more funds isn’t the same as being diversified, how correlation risk sneaks into “simple” portfolios, and what “more” actually looks like when you need income, flexibility, and protection from major drawdowns. You’ll also see how private credit and real estate debt can add durable cash flow and stability, without turning your retirement plan into a second job.
