Q&A: ChatGPT Built Her $1.2M Portfolio … But Should You Trust It?

Afford Anything

About
#641: Cristina has a $1.2 million portfolio and hopes to make work optional within the next decade. Is she invested in the right way? Or should she change up her asset allocation?

Anonymous and her husband plan to retire in 5 years. They have 10 rental properties and a $2.75 million portfolio. They dream of slow travel, generosity, and family time. How should they structure their assets to support the lifestyle they want?

Paula (the caller) and her husband are planning for three kids, private school, and possibly college down the road.  Should they front-load a 529 plan with a large lump sum, or take a different approach?



Former financial planner Joe Saul-Sehy and I tackle these three questions in today’s episode.

Enjoy!
