Henry Yoshida, Rocket Dollar

21st Century Diversification

Traditional 401(k) accounts are locked into singular investing methods: stocks and bonds. But 21st century diversification looks a lot different than the variety of stocks you purchase. With self-directed IRA and solo 401(k) accounts, investors are now able to use their retirement funds to invest in real estate, peer-to-peer lending, startups and more, in addition to the traditional stocks and bonds. Rocket Dollar makes it easy to unlock those retirement savings and achieve 21st century diversification—penalty.
