On this episode of Simply Money presented by Allworth Financial, Bob and Brian break down the growing debate over allowing private equity, private credit, crypto, and other alternative investments inside 401(k) plans—and why many investors and fiduciaries are pushing back. They also discuss whether Americans are taking full advantage of new retirement and tax-saving strategies, the financial realities of owning a vacation home, how to know if you can afford a career sabbatical, strategies for managing large required minimum distributions, and when it's time to simplify a rental property portfolio.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
