Market downturns happen, and we get a full-on crash every decade or so. As much as we like to think of them as opportunities, thinking that way and acting that way are two different things. And the closer you get to a financial goal, the more at-risk you are of a big downturn upending your plans. In this week's show, Jeff and Jason discuss the difference between asset allocation and diversification, building a portfolio that's more resistant to crashes and individual company risk, and resilient for both the near- and long-term.
