On this episode I'm joined by Amanda Beebe, Senior Associate at Bernstein Private Wealth Management. We discuss how the essence of human nature leads people to be much worse at managing money than anticipated. We share research on how the mind can be lazy and lead investors to bad conclusions, especially when it involves evaluating risk and return. We cover why people so deeply want certainty and feel such acute pain from loss, and how these desires can lead to poor outcomes. We then address the impact this has had on portfolio returns and how one can become a better investor in the future. For more information email [email protected] or call 212-969-6655.
