About this episode

David Brooks answers questions about overnight trading and financial planning for retirement.

What are we to make of the Nasdaq’s addition of an overnight trading session from 9pm to 4am? As a 66-year-old who has no desire to retire soon, and who is in good shape financially, what should I plan for in the event I cannot work and how should I approach my investments? And with some money in an after-tax account that I’m getting from my divorce, should I pay off my mortgage that still has 22 years left? David Brooks has answers to these questions in today’s Q&A episode.
