James, I am retired but I still truly enjoy your content as I realize that I still have several years to be invested in the market. I have no plans to ever pull out of the market. To that end, you are such a calming voice of reason. Thank you for what you are doing.

The only guaranteed loss is cash. You need enough for an emergency and short term large purchases, but it will almost never be enough to live on long term.

Over a very long time horizon, sure the standard stocks and bond portfolio protects against inflation and outperform cash significantly; but it would be useful to hear about tactical adjustments to make for bear markets or stagflationary markets - e.g. rebalancing the standard 60/40 stock bond allocations to more diversified portfolios that include real estate, gold, commodity indices and possibly even (with much caution) Bitcoin. Stocks and bonds BOTH underperform during inflationary periods, so it's wise to temporary allocate a little more to these alternative asset classes that do well in low growth, high inflation environments - at least until inflation is under control.

I am nearing retirement - 59 - looking to see if/when "early" is possible = 100% certain I could quit today and be just fine. It helps that I like my job & know that I am making a worthwhile contribution. I guess I'm just remembering all those years long ago when I was working paycheck to paycheck - & the 9bkybootion was $2K/yr IRA = it was budgeted into my weekly spending = paying myself first. It really mattered, & has helped a lot. I feel very blessed. I soooo hope young peeps're listening!
