What did “Brother MPF” teach Ming?
An MPFA column had “Brother MPF” advise graduate Ming: start with risk tolerance; in your twenties with 30–40 years to retirement, you can take more risk and chase higher long-run returns. Equity funds carry higher risk and higher potential returns — hold a bigger slice; lower tolerance means bond funds and the like. Higher potential return, higher risk.
How to lower risk?
Diversify: across fund types (equities plus bonds), even across markets; review the mix regularly and adjust when needed.
