To help break it down for us, Emerging Markets expert and founder of Life + Liberty Indexes, Perth Tolle, stops by to discuss:  ➤ What Emerging Markets are and why retirement savers should consider investing in this asset class ➤ Why traditional, low-cost Emerging Market funds may produce lower returns ➤ The pros/cons of excluding countries like China and Russia from an Emerging Markets fund  We also discuss why "freedom" plays an important role in this asset class and how investors can (potentially) use freedom metrics to capture higher returns.  *** FREE RETIREMENT PLANNING RESOURCES: Subscribe to the Stay Wealthy Retirement Newsletter!
