This week on Sound Investing-

For the past 5 years international markets have provided investors with eye-popping returns while billions of dollars have flowed into international mutual funds.  But the party may be over as Chinese and Indian markets have taken a beating this year.  What should your international strategy be?  Our show starts with a great discussion about how you should spread your money globally.

College financing.  Retirement saving.  Both are big topics but not too big for Lynn O'Shaughnessy, a well respected author and journalist.  She joins us to discuss her new book on picking the right college and figuring out how to pay for it.

Nearly 1 in 3 dollars going into mutual funds this year are using indexing.  But that hasn’t stopped the “gurus” from directing you to use active management.  The latest voice is Suze Orman, who says she has switched from indexing to active because in this economy you need to use active management.  You’ll want to hear our not-so-calm response.

If you have been an investor very long you have no doubt heard the expression, "there’s always a bull market somewhere".  Let Paul help you determine if that’s a myth or reality.

Plus, Paul’s Outrage:  Some shareholders are more equal than others!
