In this episode of Nurturing Financial Freedom, we shift focus from the hard numbers and take a deep dive into the psychological side of investing. Specifically, we explore loss aversion—the human tendency to feel the pain of financial loss more intensely than the pleasure of gains. As we've all seen in our work and our own portfolios, emotional reactions to market swings can often lead to irrational decisions. That's where understanding behavioral finance becomes a powerful tool in making smarter financial choices.We start with Ed breaking down the origins of loss aversion, rooted in the research of Kahneman and Tversky. Their work in the 1970s, which led to the development of prospect theory, shows that the average person perceives a $100,000 loss as twice as painful as a $100,000 gain is pleasurable. This cognitive imbalance causes two major pitfalls: people either avoid risk entirely and park money in cash—letting inflation erode value—or they panic-sell during downturns and miss out on rebounds, effectively locking in their losses.Ed walks us through real examples, including the volatility of April 2024, the pandemic crash of 2020, and the 2008 recession. He explains how our amygdala, hardwired to detect threats, doesn't differentiate between a market dip and a life-or-death situation, making our emotional reactions feel justified—even when they're counterproductive.Alex builds on this by offering techniques to manage this psychological bias. First, we need to build a financial plan with a properly diversified portfolio aligned to our specific timeline and goals. He emphasizes reframing our perspective—looking at a portfolio not as a cash balance but as ownership in companies that will likely be around for decades. He shares the analogy of home values: we don't sell our house when its Zestimate dips; likewise, we shouldn't rush to sell stocks when they temporarily fall.Other actionable strategies include pre-committing to actions like rebalancing during downturns, increasing contributions when prices are low, and resisting the urge to act impulsively. He underscores the power of long-term thinking—"expand the graph"—to see that every crash looks like a blip over decades. And finally, he recommends examining past mistakes. Nothing hits home more than seeing the dollars lost from a past panic sale.We close by reaffirming that while we can't guarantee outcomes, we can plan for volatility. The market is emotional in the short term but logical in the long term. With the right mindset and tools, we can better navigate the emotional terrain of investing and avoid letting fear dictate our strategy.Books Mentioned:Thinking Fast and Slow: https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman/dp/0374533555The Undoing Project: A Friendship That Changed Our Minds: https://www.amazon.com/Undoing-Project-Friendship-Changed-Minds/dp/0393354776 You can always email Alex and Ed at info@birchrunfinancial.com or give them a call at 484-395-2190.Or visit them on the web at https://www.birchrunfinancial.com/Alex and Ed's Book: Mastering The Money Mind: https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Money-Mind-Thinking-Personal/dp/1544530536 Any opinions are those of Ed Lambert Alex Cabot, and Jon Gay and not necessarily those of RJFS or Raymond James.

In this episode of Retire with Style, Wade Pfau and Alex Murguia sit down with Dr. Daniel Crosby, a leading voice in behavioral finance, to unpack the psychological side of investing in today's volatile markets. Together, they examine how market swings and media noise shape investor behavior—and why having a thoughtful media diet and disciplined decision-making framework is more important than ever. This conversation lays the foundation for next week's episode, where the discussion will shift toward deeper questions of wealth and meaning. Listen now to learn more! Takeaways Market volatility can trigger anxiety—even among professionals. It's normal to feel fear during downturns, but those emotions don't have to drive your decisions. Limiting exposure to financial news may help you stay focused and make better choices. Recognizing the incentives behind financial media can help you consume it more critically. More information isn't always better—clarity often comes from less, not more. Patience matters. Reminding yourself that “this too shall pass” can be grounding. Uncertainty often causes more stress than bad news itself. Taking time to reflect before acting can lead to better financial outcomes. We tend to give others better advice than we give ourselves—pause and consider what you'd tell a friend. Automation and structured plans are powerful tools to reduce emotional decision-making.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Watch In a world where financial decisions can be deeply influenced by emotions and biases, understanding how these factors play a role in investment strategy is crucial. This episode of “Inspired Money” dives deep into behavioral finance to uncover the predictable irrationality in our investment choices. Are you letting fear and greed drive your financial decisions? Discover strategies to navigate biases and invest more rationally by tuning in. Meet the Expert Panelists Colin Camerer is a pioneering behavioral economist and neuroeconomist known for integrating psychology and neuroscience into economic decision-making. As the Robert Kirby Professor of Behavioral Finance and Economics at Caltech, he researches neuroeconomics, behavioral game theory, decision science, and the neuroscience of economic choices, earning him a MacArthur Fellowship in 2013 and an honorary doctorate from the Stockholm School of Economics in 2019. Tom Howard is a pioneer in behavioral finance, best known for founding AthenaInvest and authoring the influential book Behavioral Portfolio Management. With over 35 years in academia and finance, he developed a groundbreaking approach that challenges traditional investment theory by focusing on how investors actually behave, revolutionizing portfolio management through a behavioral data-driven strategy. Annika Echarti, CFP® is a financial coach specializing in behavioral finance and financial psychology. With a background in accounting, law, and economics, she helps self-employed individuals and small business owners align their financial decisions with their goals and values, focusing on both practical strategies and the psychology behind money habits. Megan McCoy, Ph.D., LMFT, AFC®, CFT™ is an Assistant Professor at Kansas State University's Department of Personal Financial Planning, where she specializes in financial therapy, financial well-being, and the dynamics of couples' financial interactions, and has published extensively on these topics while also contributing as a board member of the Financial Therapy Association and co-editor of the Financial Planning Review. Key Highlights: Cognitive Biases Unveiled: According to Colin Camerer, “Fear and greed are real and are actually in the brain.” He explains how these emotions manifest during market bubbles, revealing deep insights into investor behavior. Recognizing these mental states can help investors maintain discipline amidst market fluctuations. The Power of Planning: Tom Howard highlights that “myopic loss aversion is the most important mistake that investors make,” emphasizing the role of structured investment plans and predefined sell rules. By anchoring decisions to clear guidelines, investors can mitigate the biases that lead to costly errors. Aligning Financial Decisions with Values: Annika Echarti stresses the significance of aligning financial choices with personal values to overcome emotional biases. This strategic alignment helps investors make decisions that not only benefit their portfolios but also align with their life goals. The Role of Emotional Intelligence: Megan McCoy advocates for the development of emotional intelligence to recognize financial biases. Through self-awareness and exercises like the money egg, investors can unpack early money-related experiences to better understand their current biases. Call-to-Action Here's what I want you to do: the next time you're about to make an investment decision—pause. Ask yourself: Is this decision based on a solid strategy, or is it driven by emotion? Write down your reasoning before taking action. Even just becoming aware of your thought process can help you make smarter choices. Let's start investing more intentionally and less emotionally. Let me know in the comments—what's one bias you've noticed in your own financial decisions? Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.

Finance professor Meir Statman, author of "A Wealth of Well-Being: A Holistic Approach to Behavioral Finance," says the headlines and geopolitical risks that have investors and consumers scrambling for a plan of action are not that different from past times, and that taking a deep breath and calming down will be a lot better than altering financial plans or stocking up and filling "that refrigerator you keep in the garage." Statman acknowledges that inflation is scary — particularly because it removes a measure of certainty from pricing — but says that acting scared has never served investors and consumers well. In The NAVigator, John Cole Scott, chief investment officer at Closed-End Fund Advisors, is back and answering more listener questions, this time on business-development companies, highlighting how they are different from closed-end funds but should be included with closed-end funds for portfolio-construction purposes. In the Market Call, Daniel Dusina, director of investments at Blue Chip Partners talks about how he finds "underappreciated quality companies."

Do your investment habits match the seven habits of highly effective investors? I'm James Derrick, and today we will explore a list, and it's not your typical list of what it takes to be a successful investor with our expert and guest, Jordan Hadfield.

In this episode, Ryan Burklo discusses the five essential principles of investing, emphasizing the importance of having a well-structured balance sheet, understanding risk, diversifying investments, rebalancing portfolios, and maintaining good behavioral finance practices. He highlights how these principles can help investors navigate market fluctuations and achieve long-term financial success. Check out our website:  beerandmoney.net For a quick assessment of your current financial life go to: https://www.livingbalancesheet.com/lbsVision/lite/RyanBurklo Takeaways Your balance sheet should be set up appropriately before investing. Having an emergency fund is crucial before investing in stocks or bonds. Understanding your overall risk tolerance is essential for investment success. Diversification is necessary to mitigate risks associated with market volatility. Rebalancing your portfolio helps maintain your desired risk level over time. Behavioral finance plays a significant role in investment decisions. Investing is a long-term commitment, not just a short-term strategy. Don't put all your money in the S&P 500; consider other asset classes. Market timing is risky and often leads to poor investment decisions. Consulting with a financial advisor can help you navigate complex investment strategies.

Welcome to the Alfalfa Podcast

As Betterment's Director of Behavioral Science, Dan Egan knows that understanding human behavior is key to your client's financial success. But knowing that's true and knowing what to do about it are two different things. There are a lot of opinions thrown around in the behavioral finance space on what works and what doesn't. And you probably don't want to “test” some of these ideas on clients you hope to work with for 10-30 years. For years, Dan has been testing behavioral finance interventions to figure out what actually works (and what is a waste of time). In this episode, he reveals proven ideas you can implement to enhance your client's outcomes without having to go through your own trial-and-error process. What You'll Learn: How to frame taxes to prevent impulsive decisions How visualizing goals makes saving more consistent Why you should NOT engage clients during a market downturn How robo-advisors actually enhance the value of human advisors The two types of clients most likely to panic during market volatility *To sign up for Brendan's newsletter packed with resources to master the human side of advice → Click Here Resources: "Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" by Robert M.
