  • 10 Ways to Ruin Your Financial Future Part 2

    Join Paul & William for part 2 of 10 surefire ways to ruin your financial future.


    Paul & William discuss Dr. Daniel Crosby's research which sheds light on the profound correlation between your behavior patterns, market volatility, and the ultimate realization of your long-term financial goals. Referred to as the "behavior gap," this space between market returns and realized returns is now recognized as a critical factor that influences investment success.


    Savvy investors are now realizing that they are every bit as central to their success as the actual vehicles in which they are invested.


    Dr. Crosby's first book, Personal Benchmark: Integrating Behavioral Finance and Investment Management, was a New York Times bestseller. His second book, The Laws of Wealth, was named the best investment book of 2017 by the Axiom Business Book Awards and has been translated into Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese and German. His latest work, The Behavioral Investor, is an in-depth look at how sociology, psychology and neurology all impact investment decision-making.
