Pension Attention

Emotional vs Rational: Which approach to investing is right?


Listen Later

The news has been jumping between data and emotions so much, it can feel impossible knowing where to turn. Or what to believe. And retirement dreams are drowning out in news headlines.

Is there a point to retirement planning when you don’t know what the world is going to be like in ten years?

It’s easy to get swept up in the stream of everyday news. But you still need to set a course on making your money grow (and work for you).

At the end of the day, our emotions and logic are speaking the same language. 

In this episode, I reveal how to plan and reach your retirement goals (without the data or drama getting in the way).

Show Highlights Include:

  • The ‘Blaise Pascal’ way to balance between emotions and rationality in your planning. (3:12)
  • Using the Normandy Invasion to make smarter financial decisions today. (7:26) 
  • How to make the most rational decision when your mind is in ‘data overload’ mode. (11:39) 
  • Why reaching all of your retirement goals starts with acting like a ship captain. (14:22)
