Today, I’m talking with Ben Fraser, the Managing Director at Aspen Funds and host of the Invest Like A Billionaire podcast. In this episode, you’ll learn why the ultra-wealthy (billionaires, institutions, and family offices) allocate significant portions of their portfolios to investments outside the stock market and in alternatives like real estate, private equity, and hedge funds.
