‘All Investment Mistakes Are Investor Mistakes’
Is that really true? Today we’ll dig in and see how to avoid making the most common mistakes with your investments!
Avoiding Big Mistakes with Investments
‘All Investment Mistakes Are Investor Mistakes’
I saw that headline in an older article in The NY Times. Based on personal experience when I first started out, speaking with others on the podcast, and hearing from the community, there’s some truth to that.
I’ve gotten emails and heard from others about what they should do with their portfolios.
It’s one thing to have a plan on paper on what you’re going to do; it’s another to watch the volatility on the news or follow along on your phone and actually stick with the plan.
Whether you’re investing for retirement or another goal, I’m guessing you’re looking to get some good returns.
Today we’re looking for how you can become wiser, less stressed out investors.
In this episode, we’ll discuss:
- The biggest mistakes couples make when starting to invest
- Traps that can derail your investments
- Creating a system that works for you as a team
