We are tackling your questions again today. First we answer a few questions about trusts. We cover topics like revocable trusts and probate. We talk about direct indexing and what exactly that means and if it is worth doing. We discuss high yield savings accounts and CDs and bonds. We close out the episode with Dr. Dahle sharing how his views and ventures in real estate have changed over the years.
