In this episode we address emails from Chris, Kevin from Canada, Davis, Amy and Mark.  We discuss RPAR's performance issues, A Canadian Anti-Beta ETF and academic analysis of those strategies, using utilities in the Golden Ratio portfolio, frontier markets and international factor funds, decumulation mechanisms and the Golden Ratio sample portfolio, and DFA-like funds.

And THEN we put you to sleep with our weekly portfolio reviews of the seven sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.
