    These Biases Are Holding You Back

    As we begin a new year, it’s helpful to reflect on our financial habits and the biases that may influence them. By understanding and mitigating these biases, we can make more informed decisions and set ourselves up for greater financial success. In this episode, Michael will highlight the most common cognitive biases that he sees in people, which is a topic that could reshape how you approach your financial decisions.  Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode: Why biases play a huge role in what we do with finances and there are actually 175 cognitive biases. The fear of missing out bias is amplified by social media. Herding bias is the phenomenon where you blindly follow what others are doing. Confirmation bias involves only being able to see information that supports our current position and beliefs. Being open to uncertainty can improve our life.

    With the election behind us, we now know that former President Trump will have another four years in the White House. While that could mean policy shifts in all sorts of areas, we want to focus on how it may impact the economy so Michael will take a deep dive into the data on different economic growth factors, and what the numbers have looked like under both Republican and Democratic administrations over the years.

We’ll also discuss how the stock market has grown substantially over the last 97 years across many administrations of both parties. Then, we’ll get into specific growth numbers and what exactly they mean.

    Retirement Half-Truths: Beware These Potentially Misleading Statements (Part 1)

    We hear a lot of half-truths in the financial world, not necessarily because people try to make misleading statements, but because sometimes a simple statement just doesn’t quite tell the whole story.

We’ll provide insights on why these half-truths can be misleading and how to navigate them for better financial planning.   Here’s what we discuss in this episode: Half-truth #1: The market always goes up in the long run, so don’t worry about individual losses. Half-truth #2: The fees in your portfolio are less than 1 percent. Half-truth #3: If you have a low interest mortgage, you’re better off investing than paying off the house early. Half-truth #4: Diversification is THE key to investing.
