We celebrate Talking Real Money's 1,000th episode (we are slowly adding some recently uncovered archived shows).

Investors are always seeking the one easy way to solve a problem.  There is no one right way to deal with inflation. There is no high-yielding, low risk investing. Later, we consider the wisdom of "model" portfolios.

Throughout the episode, listeners ask:

• Can you make regular contributions to a rollover IRA?
• What is the name of the author of Trillions?
• What is a safe, high-yield alternative to annuities?
• What is the proper allocation for retirement funds in a caller's particular case?
• If retiring in 2022, can the maximum contribution to a TSP allowed?
