Take it from a five-star wealth manager: Wise Money puts you at the head of the class with the investors who have all the money.
Over the last decade, the average person who invested in stocks and bonds has seen his or her assets flatline. During the same time, in the same market conditions, the world’s wealthiest and most successful university endowments enjoyed average growth of about 10 percent per year—including all fees.
In Wise Money, personal investing specialist Daniel Wildermuth shows you how easy it is to apply the sophisticated design and principles of the endowment strategy to your portfolio.
Whether you're a finance professional who wants to better serve your clients or an individual investor seeking to take control of your financial future, Wise Money walks you through the process of creating a portfolio that satisfies your current income needs and offers long-term return potential much greater than traditional portfolio strategies that use only U.S. stocks and bonds. Best of all, the endowment strategy doesn't rely on a particular skill set, privileged access, or even investing experience. Results derive directly from your original investment choices, and Wise Money breaks down your options into thorough, direct explanations. It then illustrates how to customize the strategy to a variety of individualized investor situations.
Wise Money is your road map to investing with the smart money by:
Choosing asset classes with high average performance over time and a high probability of giving strong returns in different ways at different times
Lowering volatility through a broad diversification of assets with lower correlation with each other
Including less traditional asset classes to help enhance performance potential and lessen portfolio risk
Wildermuth has educated and inspired a farreaching audience with his engaging, informative style and revealingly colorful stories, and now he opens the door for you.
