Peter Lazaroff on The Perfect Portfolio

Episode 100

Sunday, September 27, 2026 • Duration 38:37

Bogleheads® on Investing co-host Jon Luskin interviews Peter Lazarov, author of The Perfect Portfolio, about building an investment portfolio you can stick with for decades. They discuss how investment strategies should evolve as life circumstances change, why investors shouldn't count on a future inheritance, and how to assess risk tolerance by examining past behavior rather than relying solely on questionnaires. The conversation also explores index versus factor investing, the relationship between interest rates and bond fund returns, and the trade-offs between individual bonds and bond funds. Finally, Peter explains why he invests his own money in a single, globally diversified all-in-one fund, reinforcing the importance of simplicity and staying the course.

Ben Carlson on Inflation, Investing, and Why Less Is More

Episode 98

Sunday, August 30, 2026 • Duration 53:27

Ben Carlson, CFA, author of Risk & Reward, joins the podcast to discuss why successful investing is often less about finding the perfect strategy and more about keeping things simple and sticking with a plan. We discuss the challenges of private equity, bonds and TIPS, inflation hedges, investor behavior, and why portfolio changes should generally be driven by life changes rather than market headlines. Ben also shares how his investing philosophy has evolved, including his thoughts on factor investing, momentum, and using a little “fun money” as a behavioral release valve. Finally, we dig into increasingly popular tax-aware strategies such as direct indexing and long-short tax-loss harvesting, including whether the potential tax savings are worth the added costs and complexity. Ben sums up much of the conversation with three words: “Less is more.”

Episode 93, Why Retirees Should Own More Stocks from Blackrock's Head of ETFs

Episode 94

Sunday, April 26, 2026 • Duration 42:48

In this episode of the Bogleheads® on Investing podcast, host Jon Luskin, CFP®, sits down with Jay Jacobs, US Head of Equity ETFs at BlackRock, to answer community-submitted questions about how to invest simply and effectively for retirement. Jay oversees more than 300 iShares ETFs spanning US equity, international, outcome, and digital asset strategies, and brings deep institutional expertise to the Bogleheads community's most pressing investing questions.

Jon and Jay explore the powerful tax-efficiency advantages of ETF structures over mutual funds, particularly for investors using all-in-one and target-date products in taxable brokerage accounts. The conversation covers how ETFs use in-kind creation/redemption mechanisms to minimize capital gains distributions, a significant edge over traditional mutual funds.

The episode dives into the research and methodology behind glide path design, including how demographic shifts (people working and living longer), inflation expectations, and capital markets assumptions all influence how the stock/bond mix evolves over an investor's lifetime. Jay explains the rationale behind the LifePath funds' 40% stock/60% bond terminal allocation, why a market-weight approach to international exposure makes sense for long-term investors, and more.
