Danny Stewart masters the trail

The one thing guaranteed to drive me to the gym last spring to get back in shape was the sight of Danny Stewart climbing the Stair Master, day after day, in his ball cap and sweats. He was going to climb a mountain - the first one since health concerns two years ago sidelined him from the outdoor activities he loved, he said. He had ten weeks to get ready to climb Machu Picchu in Peru with a group of friends at the end of June. We talked about it when he returned, and his experience shows how to master both fear and the trail in front of you.

In fact, investing for the long term doesn’t necessarily mean you should lock your investments in forever. Throughout your life, you’ll likely need to make some changes.
