Last week, I shared a “bonus” play: a way to construct Wall Street’s gold-standard “60/40” portfolio for only $0.67 on the dollar. Today, we’ll consider what you might do with the $0.33 that you free up with that approach. Now, it doesn’t make sense to buy more equities with that $0.33. When you buy shares of the WisdomTree U.S. Efficient Core Fund (NYSE: NTSX), you have nearly the same allocation to equities as the standard 60/40. Buying more equities with your remaining $0.33 will only expose you to more risk. Same goes with bonds. You don’t want to buy more bonds with the remaining $0.33.

As fun and lucrative as “stock-picking” can be, I’m a firm believer that ETFs, with their proliferation and innovative advancements, are the greatest gift of all to the modern-day investor.

I’m pleased to report that my optimism proved warranted in October.

My wife and I both enjoy cooking, but our approaches couldn’t be more different. She shoots from the hip, feeling her way through ingredients and flavors she thinks will combine well, tasting along the way.

You might remember when my and my wife’s son Leo was born. It sure feels like yesterday to us! But believe it or not, Leo turns 1 year old on Saturday! All the grandparents arrived in town yesterday, and we’re grateful to have everyone together to celebrate. So, I hope you’ll forgive the brevity of our update today.
