One of the many tools used during the financial planning process is the Monte Carlo simulation, which uses historical and personal financial data to predict the probability of certain outcomes in retirement. Nathan discusses how advisors use statistical analysis to help clients plan for retirement, and how the quality of the data you put in can mean the difference between success and failure. Also, on our MoneyTalk Moment in Financial History, Nathan and Daniel cover the birth of communism during the Russian Revolution, and the economic collapse that followed.
