In this week’s episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO and Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, uncovers the surprising ways investors sabotage their own success. Despite strong market performance, studies show that the average investor consistently underperforms - by as much as 5% per year. Why? Behavioral biases.

Key highlights of the episode include:

•The Dow Bar study’s shocking findings on why investors consistently earn 5% less than the market. •How overconfidence causes even successful professionals to make costly financial mistakes. •Why recency bias leads investors to chase trends and panic during downturns. •The impact of confirmation bias and how it keeps investors from seeing the full picture. •Real-world examples of billionaires, fund managers, and everyday investors who fell into these traps.
