Eleven months a year Dr. Robert  Pass produces a podcast dedicated to a review of the latest literature and thought leaders in pediatric cardiovascular care.  For the last 3 years Rob has finished his podcast series with a focus on personal finance. 

It has been an honor to work with Rob on these special podcasts for the last 3 years. This is his podcast from December 2023. 

To conclude 2023 we end with noted national authority on personal finance and investing, Mr. Paul Merriman.

Mr. Merriman reviews some basic ideas about asset allocation within a retirement plan such as a 403b, 401k or IRA with the goal of achieving the highest degree of return for level of risk.

He reviews the importance of diversification and also shares with us both a '2 fund' and '4 fund' approach to creating a low cost, efficient and diversified portfolio that has, historically, been associated with good long term returns.
