The debate over whether you should invest in the stock market in an active way or a passive way has been going on for many years. It has been only recently that we’ve started to notice an increase in the amount of money across the United States that has flowed out of active investment portfolio and strategy and into passive investment strategies. And as we go along in this episode, of course we’ll explain the difference between the two styles, and the pros and cons of each. However, which strategy could be the right one for you? And how much time should you devote to understanding your options within each style? This episode is designed to help you understand the active vs. passive investment dilemma so that you can make the right decisions regarding the hard-earned retirement money that you choose to invest in the stock market.
