will not soon be forgotten. Nate is a huge proponent of active retirement strategies and investing in foreign companies. This is a very difficult and time consuming method of investing, as well as very risky. Dr. Oltmans, on the other hand, prefers index funds, for a hired professional manages them and minimizes the risk of moving investments at the wrong time.
