Black Friday Sales are a global shopping bonanza.

Alec & Bryce are a little distracted in today's episode as they scour the internet for Black Friday Sales and Christmas present shopping.

But, with all seriousness. We delve into how differently we all react when there is a discount in the world of consumables ... compared to how we think about discounts in the stock market.

People go crazy when they know they can get 15% off toys or TV's for Christmas presents, they'll que up outside a retail shop for hours ... yet when the stock market is down 15%, people will run to the hills.

So let's arm you with the information why when the stock market is 'on sale' ... it's a good time to buy.
