In this episode we answer questions from Matsui, FuriousRiskParityInvestor and Paul.  We discuss why we have chosen excessively aggressive withdrawal rates for the sample portfolios, revisit treasury bond correlation issues and why smaller allocations to long-term treasuries make more sense than larger allocations to intermediate treasury bonds in most risk parity style portfolios.

And THEN we our go through our weekly and monthly portfolio reviews of the seven sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.
