Podcasts about financial decision making

Only a third of the global population is financially literate. Why? Because most of us don't learn the basics of personal finance in school — or elsewhere. Treating financial literacy as an afterthought can have serious consequences, from personal calamities to economic crises, according to Annamaria Lusardi, a professor of finance and the director of the Initiative for Financial Decision-Making at Stanford Graduate School of Business. On this episode of If/Then, Lusardi makes the case for treating financial education like preventative care: essential, cost-effective, and an enormous opportunity to improve people's lives, boost workplace performance, and strengthen economic resilience. “We should learn about money as soon as possible,” Lusardi says. “As soon as the tooth fairy comes.”Where do you go for financial advice?

On today's episode we hear a rebroadcast of the 2025 UMBC Mullen Lecture, sponsored by UMBC's Center for Social Science Scholarship and the UMBC Department of Economics. This year's lecture was delivered by Dr. Annamaria Lusardi. Dr. Lusardi is Senior Fellow at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research, Director of the Initiative for Financial Decision-Making, and Professor (by courtesy) at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Dr. Lusardi's remarks take up the question of financial literacy among ordinary people around the world.

In this mind-expanding episode of The Higher Standard, Chris and Saied take a detour from their usual financial deep dives to expose the sinister underbelly of human decision-making. Turns out, the economy isn't broken—our brains are. From Robert Shiller's Narrative Economics to Jonathan Haidt's The Anxious Generation, the duo unpacks how financial markets, political ideologies, and your everyday spending habits are more influenced by viral stories and social media hysteria than by any rational thought process. Long story, short: You're probably not making financial decisions—you're reacting to the subconscious cues planted in your head by algorithms, dopamine hits, and good old-fashioned tribalism.➡️ And just when you thought you were in control, they hit you with The Chaos Machine by Max Fisher, a book that details how social media isn't just ruining dinner-table conversations—it's actively rewiring your brain for extremism and anxiety. From doomscrolling mortgage rate headlines to being emotionally blackmailed into buying gold, Chris and Saied reveal that the only way to escape the manipulation matrix is to step back, slow down, and—dare we say—think. But hey, no pressure! If you'd rather stay plugged into the fear factory, there's always another viral headline waiting to tell you the economy is collapsing.

In this Under the Hood episode, Brian and Hans demystify the concept of cash value in whole life insurance, revealing how it fundamentally differs from conventional banking accounts. Rather than being a simple savings vehicle, cash value represents a contractually guaranteed future payment that grows stronger with time - a crucial distinction in an era of financial uncertainty. Starting with a very timely example of the danger of dealing with and depending on the government, they highlight why traditional financial systems may not provide the security many believe they do. Through their conversation, they share personal experiences demonstrating how building capital outside traditional systems has allowed them to make confident financial decisions even when faced with systemic challenges, offering practical insights for listeners seeking to protect their wealth and create lasting financial security. Understanding Cash Value: An exploration of the often misunderstood concept of cash value in whole life insurance, explaining how it represents the net present value of future guaranteed payments and differs from traditional banking accounts. Time as the Growth Engine: A detailed look at how the passage of time, rather than market performance, drives cash value growth in whole life insurance policies. This unique characteristic makes it a powerful tool for long-term wealth building. Policy Loans and Financial Freedom: Discussion of how understanding cash value enables strategic use of policy loans, providing financial flexibility without the constraints of traditional lending. ▶️ Chapters:  00:00 - Government Overreach and Personal Rights 11:00 - Credit Score Impact and System Independence 21:00 - Explaining Cash Value Through Examples 31:00 - Time Value and Guaranteed Payouts 41:00 - Policy Loans and Financial Decision Making  51:00 - Building Generational Wealth 01:01:00 - Final Thoughts on Financial Independence Got Questions?

As we get older, things change. Our priorities shift, viewpoints and opinions evolve, and our bodies—and brains—age.  Many of these changes are good—we can celebrate the process of aging as one that invites wisdom and joy. But there are natural consequences of getting older, and one of those consequences is cognitive decline. Eric Chess is a former medical doctor who has also earned degrees in law and business. Chess is the director of the Paul Freeman Financial Security Program at DU. He seeks to identify the earliest signs of cognitive impairment—and works to protect the lives and financial assets of older people experiencing cognitive decline. Dr. Eric Chess is a physician, lawyer and professor with a focus on prevention, comprehensive well-being, financial security and older adults. He has over a decade of experience in internal medicine practice (board certified), as a hospitalist and as an outpatient physician. He is currently a Clinical Professor at the University of Denver's Knoebel Institute for Healthy Aging, serving as the founder and director of Aging and Well-being/The Paul Freeman Financial Security Program. Additionally, he serves as an adjunct Professor at the University of Denver's Sturm College of Law and Daniels College of Business. Dr. Chess has an undergraduate degree in economics and political science, and a graduate law degree with experience as an attorney and economic consultant. The Knoebel Institute for Healthy Aging creates and implements solutions for aging issues through multidisciplinary research, education and outreach by serving as an information clearinghouse for media on matters related to aging; educating and training a diverse workforce to serve a rapidly aging population; and promoting innovation, research and business development related to aging. The Paul Freeman Financial Security Program combines the expertise of faculty, researchers and students at the University of Denver. Their interdisciplinary team of researchers in law, finance, psychology, social work, business, neuroscience, and medicine is led by Eric Chess, MD, JD. Goals of impact include four main areas: Research and Development; Outreach and Collaboration; Education; and Policy. Part of the program's core mission is to address the need for more impactful solutions regarding financial exploitation and fraud of older adults. Target areas currently include developing a financial vulnerability scale, leading a state-wide collaboration, developing a financial-protective team legal instrument, and addressing the significant transfer of wealth affecting older adults and potential future generations and clients. 

Jesse kicks today's show off with a monologue on the importance of having the right temperament for investing - it's not really about intelligence at all. Emotional stability and disciplined decision making outweigh expertise and intelligence when investing. The Dunning-Kruger effect and the paradox of choice are also highlighted, emphasizing the need to prioritize action over perfection in personal finance. For the second half of the show, Dr. Brad Klontz, Co-Founder of the Financial Psychology Institute and author of Start Thinking Rich, joins to discuss “money scripts”, which are subconscious beliefs about money inherited from previous generations, our society, or other people we're surrounded by. Throughout the conversation, the duo dispels myths about wealth, and makes a distinction between being “poor” (a limiting mindset) and being “broke” (a temporary financial state). The conversation gets deep into the stories we tell ourselves, how we present money, and how to adopt an internal locus of control and make lifestyle changes.  This episode is a must listen for anyone wanting to explore their own “money scripts” and rethink the way they talk to themselves - and others - about money. Key Takeaways:• How the Dunning-Kruger effect is affecting your investing decisions. • The difference between a satisficer and a maximizer - and why you may want to be the former. • What is a “money script”? And how can you change yours? • The patterns you may have inherited from even your great grandparents. • Consider how you rank on the following four patterns: avoidance, worship, vigilance, and status. • Research backed psychological insights about your relationship with money.

My friend Pierre Rochard (VP Research at Riot Platforms) rejoins me on the show to discuss some of his latest views. Summary In this conversation, Stephan and Pierre discuss the concept of long-term savings in Bitcoin and its product-market fit. Pierre introduces a metric for measuring long-term savings by looking at the age of UTXOs (unspent transaction outputs). They also explore the idea of rebalancing and the importance of aligning financial decisions with personal goals. The conversation then shifts to the challenges of running a profitable business in a Bitcoin standard and the role of passive index equity investing in a hyper Bitcoinized world. Further, Pierre and Stephan discuss the implications of individuals and governments holding Bitcoin. They explore the idea of investing time in Bitcoin rather than just money, and how businesses can leverage Bitcoin without large capital investments. They also touch on the moral implications of educating others about Bitcoin and the potential cultural changes that may occur on a Bitcoin standard. The conversation concludes with a discussion on government adoption of Bitcoin and the impact it may have on society. Takeaways Bitcoin has found product-market fit in the area of long-term savings, as evidenced by the increasing number of UTXOs that have not moved in more than a year. The age of Bitcoin UTXOs can provide insights into the behavior of hodlers and the overall health of the Bitcoin network. Rebalancing should be driven by personal goals and values, rather than trying to time the market or follow others' advice. In a Bitcoin standard, it may be challenging for businesses to outperform Bitcoin in terms of returns, but there may still be a role for active investing and supporting entrepreneurial ventures. Passive index equity investing may become less prevalent in a hyper Bitcoinized world, as individuals prioritize holding Bitcoin and investing in businesses they are actively involved in. Investing time in Bitcoin can be just as valuable as investing money. Businesses can leverage Bitcoin without large capital investments. Educating others about Bitcoin is important, but it's not necessary to force people onto the Bitcoin journey. Cultural changes on a Bitcoin standard may include a shift towards lower time preference and more focus on family and spirituality. Government adoption of Bitcoin can move them away from being a state and towards a more decentralized entity. The amount of Bitcoin a government holds should be based on their immediate needs and the uncertainty of the future. Government adoption of Bitcoin can accelerate Bitcoin adoption among individuals. The moral implications of the government holding Bitcoin depend on whether it leads to the violation of the non-aggression principle. Taxation with Bitcoin becomes more difficult, which may lead to a reduction in government spending. Advocating for a strategic reserve of Bitcoin can lead to more conversations and ultimately more Bitcoin adoption.

Morgan Housel's eye-opening book amplified the idea that the intersection of psychology and money is bigger and more bustling than most of us know. Today's guest, Christine Moriarty, has dedicated her life to finding harmony between the two. Christine isn't the typical CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™. Despite her finance degree and MBA in Entrepreneurship, she was never even remotely interested in finances. She was always more interested in the people behind them. Money is just an object. Yet, it has the power to trigger our deepest fears and anxieties. Her mission, as the founder of MoneyPeace, is to help individuals recognize and overcome these emotional barriers, empowering them to achieve peace and prosperity in their financial and personal lives. She also discusses money and memory and wants to help families plan for the implications the aging process can have on financial situations. Having worked with thousands of people and shared her insights with publications such as USA Today, Good Housekeeping, Fidelity Focus Magazine, and more, she has often been referred to by her clients as “the cash counselor” or “financial therapist.” Whether between a husband and wife, a mother and a son, two friends, or even a personal connection with money, relationships can be fraught and complicated. Listening to Christine can help us see the approach needed to improve that dynamic and positively impact our overall quality of life. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
