49. Are Your Goals the Same As Your Incentives?


Listen Later

When it comes to understanding human behavior, Jason has learned the value of understanding incentives. Employees and managers almost always act based on how they're compensated, even if it's not aligned perfectly with the best interests of a company or its owners. Yet, we as investors seem to make the mistake of not having our personal incentives aligned with our long-term financial goals. In this episode, Jason and Jeff discuss this complex topic and offer some examples of incentives versus goals to help you strengthen your own investing toolbox.
