Ode to Lifecycle Investing

I’ve been posting substantively about my new book,?Lifecycle Investing (for example,?here and?here and?here).? But in a lighter vein, Barry and I have coauthored our very first poem about the advantages of borrowing money to invest for retirement when you are young. With some trepidation, I share the poem with you now:
There once was a young man from Rome
who went out and purchased?our tome.
He learned to invest,
and now can attest
that loans are not just for the home.
This explains why there are not more coauthored poems.
You can learn more about our leveraged lifecycle strategy in these?video FAQs:
