Another explanation for advisors diversifying clients into alternative investments is that they are chasing performance just like other investors. For another recent example, look at all the University endowments who copied Yale and piled into private equity, hedge funds and other illiquid investments.Michael Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362529610470788243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465015914589377788.post-11886151167925950552009-11-27T22:16:25.627-05:002009-11-27T22:16:25.627-05:00Thanks for the link.

However, other advisors make this pitch just because it works on their clients. It's always easy to say "look at this approach that just blew up; it's obviously flawed and I can show you the smart path to wealth." When alternative investments start blowing up (as all investments with risk do from time to time), how many of these advisors will then just jump to the next thing to sell their clients?Michael Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362529610470788243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465015914589377788.post-64020564095472252842009-11-27T09:25:21.208-05:002009-11-27T09:25:21.208-05:00Thanks for the link Michael!Thanks for the link Michael!WhereDoesAllMyMoneyGo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09185007666460707356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465015914589377788.post-5217163946989623622009-11-27T08:31:40.568-05:002009-11-27T08:31:40.568-05:00Thanks again for the mention Michael!Thanks again for the mention Michael!Million Dollar Journeyhttp://milliondollarjourney.comnoreply@blogger.com
