About this episode
The episode discusses the benefits of brokerage accounts compared to retirement accounts for retirement savings and features a historical segment on Alexander Hamilton and The Whiskey Rebellion.
It seems implied that retirement accounts are the best vehicles for your retirement savings, but depending on your circumstances, the flexibility of an after tax brokerage account can be a major benefit. Nathan explains how non-retirement accounts can work to compliment your retirement portfolio. Also, on our MoneyTalk Moment in Financial History Nathan and Daniel tell the story of Alexander Hamilton and The Whiskey Rebellion.
