  1. These blanket statements are silly. In my opinion, The volatility for the price of the bond can be pointless when looking at the return the bond gives you. A fixed rate bond will offer you a fixed known return. Depending on the time, some money there isn't bad. Just let the bond mature. Now in the US, you can get a 10 year bond for 4.5%. Higher than most of the history. If rates go down, you can make a little more; if they go up, who cares, you were ok making 4.5% a year to start with.

  2. Not owning bonds and simply owning nothing but equities opens you up to significant “sequence of returns” risk. Meaning you run the risk of having to sell a portion of your holdings during a bear market to fund your retirement. Bonds smooth that ride

  3. would love to hear comparison of buy to hold bond investments to stocks. im about a 3rd in bonds 2 3rds in stocks, with a buy and hold bond ladder with 50% TIPS. Stocks and stock funds pay 3 – 4 % dividends. retired at 60 and i sleep great!

  4. Ramsey predicate to get out of debt and save money, his message is totally positive, of fundamental importance and helps to educate to personal finance…on this Dave THANKS that is a service to the community.
    Totally disagree on his message on not investing in bonds. Portfolio have to be balanced diversified, age and time horizon adjusted….stocks are great until a crash and if you’re 2 months Away from retirment…good luck. Just be careful on there messages. Again thanks for teaching people to save and don’t take stupid debts like on cars or phones or whatever is there to impress people you should’t give a damn

  5. I am 53 and retired at 50. One thing I did do to retire early was to get out of the 401K and IRA programs. Bought rental real-estate and I am now a Limited Partner in about 1500+ units from collaborative efforts in the fund my estate planner has me invested in. I do not work..

  6. Kind of missing the point– a bond fund that has a basket of bonds that it's constantly buying/selling and rolling over when bonds mature performs a lot like a stock fund.
    But he started out by describing the basics of an individual bond; "buy a bond that pays a fixed interest rate and returns your money at the maturity date" is less volatile.

  7. Financial planning is like navigation of wealth wisely by adhering to necessary strategies. If you know where you are and where you want to go, navigation isn't such a great problem. It's when you don't know the two points that it's difficult

  8. lmfaoooo look at any income based etf, they lose value guaranteed with each year, people, invest in bonds.

    Don’t listen to this dipshit who got lucky and now recommends putting your future on the line with a risky mutual fund where the active management behind it couldn’t change a tire.

  9. “Balanced funds won’t have any bonds when market is low.”

    I would challenge Dave to find a moment in time when ANY balanced fund doesn’t have bonds in it. I would bet his entire real estate portfolio on it that he will never find one! You know why? By prospectus balanced funds have to be balanced between bonds and stocks, and yes they may have a lower percentage, but never 0!

    Dave should stick to advice on debt and budgeting and let the big boys handle financial advice and retirement planning. At least they know how math works.
