Scott Burns -- The Power of Couch Potato Investing

Scott Burns -- The Power of Couch Potato Investing

Professor Kotlikoff is joined by good friend and America's Premiere Personal Finance Journalist and author, Scott Burns. His website scottburns.com, is a treasure trove of financial advice and commonsense wisdom. Scott has been writing about personal finance for over 40 years for top newspapers and syndications. His common sense financial wisdom and extensive knowledge about all things financial has earned him a tremendous following. He's also chock full of insights about our global and national economies. Scott is also famous for his Couch Potato Portfolio investment strategy, which he developed decades ago. It's the everyman solution to investing, using index funds rather than managed funds or stock picking to earn high average market returns with essentially full diversification and rock bottom fees. Scott is the rare, perhaps only financial journalist, who reports from the field, not from the desk.
