Even the sharpest lawyers can fall into investing traps. On the latest episode of The Lawyer Millionaire Podcast, Darren Wurz uncovers the hidden psychological reasons why ambitious law firm owners often struggle to build real wealth and how you can avoid those costly mistakes.

  • How confirmation bias and overconfidence show up in the financial decisions of smart, high-income professionals.
  • The truth about beating the market.
  • The myth of the super bowl indicator in investment.
  • The psychology behind failed investments.
