Hi, I'm Christine Benz from Morningstar and welcome to the How to Retire podcast. It's a companion to my book, which is also called How to Retire. Each episode will provide a bite-sized lesson about how to do some aspect of retirement well.
Many of you know that I frequently talk about the bucket approach to retirement portfolio construction. I was inspired to work on bucketing after talking to Harold Evensky nearly two decades ago, and I knew that I wanted to chat with Harold for this podcast. He is the founder of Evensky & Katz/ Foldes Wealth Management and a retired professor of practice of the Texas Tech University Personal Financial Planning Department. Harold and I talked about how he hit on the bucket strategy and used it with his clients.
