Are Bonds Back? What Pilots Need To Know in 2025
Bonds used to be the ‘boring’ part of a portfolio. They were considered safe, steady, and not very exciting. But with yields at multi-decade highs, a lot of people are asking: Is now the time to give bonds a bigger role in your investment strategy? Scott explains how to think about bonds in today’s market, the difference between owning debt and owning equity, and why the timing of when you’ll need your money matters most. Bonds can provide income, balance, and peace of mind, but they’re not one-size-fits-all. Before you ‘go all in,’ make sure the mix fits your long-term plan.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
💵 Bonds 101: What they are and how they really work
