The Tao of Chao Podcast with Philip Chao

Tao of Chao is here to make sense of financial planning in a chaotic world.

The Tao of Chao Podcast features guests sharing frameworks and information on economic, academic, and geopolitical issues, and how they may impact investments — where we are today, how we got here, and where we may be going in the future.

Philip Chao and his guests will discuss relevant issues that a plan fiduciary should pay attention to and how such challenges are relevant in operating their retirement plans while serving in the sole interest of participants and beneficiaries.

Tao of Chao references the ancient Chinese philosophy generally understood to mean "the way of the universe." It is about finding harmony with oneself. And externally, with the universe — related to diversity, humility, limitations, reflection, contradiction, and balance. These are essential qualities in life. And necessary building blocks in portfolio construction and management.
