“Your Retirement ETFs Are at RISK” – Warren Buffett WARNS!

ETFs are everywhere, but are they as safe as you think?
In 2025, Americans hold nearly $45.8 trillion in retirement accounts, with $18.8 trillion trapped inside ETFs. On the surface, they look safe — low fees, broad exposure, and easy access. But as history shows, the “safe” path can hide massive long-term risks if you don’t understand the mechanics behind the market.

In this Warren Buffett–style, data-driven breakdown, we uncover:
How ETF concentration and flows are reshaping markets quietly
Why leveraged, synthetic, and engineered ETFs can destroy compounding
Lessons from March 2020 bond ETF disruptions and other market stress events
How to structure a durable, rule-based retirement plan that survives crises
The real cost of ignoring liquidity, fees, and behavioral mistakes

If you’re investing for the long-term, retirement, or compounding wealth, this video explains how to protect your money while keeping ETFs working for you — without falling for clever, risky products marketed as “safe.”
