I kick off today’s show by explaining how a rate hike would affect bonds and other accounts after Lisa asks if she should go all in on floating-rate funds. I then read through several rate hike headlines that are more likely to cause panic instead of helping your portfolio. Other topics for today include:
How to protect yourself from phishing A stupid commercial that flat out lies about the volatility of gold Social Security and survivor benefits
