Target-date funds just passed $4 trillion in assets. They’re now the default investment in many 401(k)s, and millions of Americans are using them without really understanding how they work. So, are they a smart choice… or just the easiest one? In this episode, Ryan breaks down why target-date funds, despite their popularity, might not be the best fit for pilots navigating toward retirement.
Here’s what we cover in this episode:
🛫 Why target-date funds are now the default, but not always the best
🧾 What’s inside a target-date fund (and what’s missing)
🚨 The major risks of a “one-size-fits-all” retirement plan
💸 How layering target-date funds leads to lack of diversification
🔍 Why pilots need a customized investment and distribution strategy
