Global Equity Index Fund vs LifeStrategy: Which is best?

Want a simple, one-fund portfolio? Should you put everything into a global stock fund — like I do — or spread your money across different types of investments? Many investors ask whether it’s better to chase higher returns with stocks, or play it safer with a more diversified mix like a LifeStrategy fund. In this video, we’ll look at the pros and cons of both approaches so you can decide what’s right for your money.
