This episode dives into defensive financial strategies—practical ways to protect your money and stay financially stable during times of uncertainty. Instead of focusing on high-risk, high-reward tactics, defensive strategies emphasize minimizing losses, managing risk, and creating a strong foundation for long-term security. Topics covered include building emergency savings, choosing more conservative investments, maintaining proper insurance coverage, and making decisions that align with your personal goals and risk tolerance. These strategies are especially relevant in volatile markets or as you approach major life transitions like retirement. The goal isn't to predict the future, but to be prepared for it.
