Ben and I sat down for an excellent conversation with Dr. Daniel Crosby to talk about all things related to behavioral finance.

During our talk, I mentioned my beef, for lack of a better word,

with behavioral finance and I want to be very clear I think that learning about our own behavior, our own limitations, it's wonderful.

And it often explains why we tend to make the same mistakes and predictable mistakes

over and over again.

However, what I was really driving at is that it's not necessarily the panacea

that it is sometimes made out to be.

Knowing our own limitations is just not enough to overcome them.

So we talk about this idea, how to Salford, and much more.

Really hope you enjoy our conversation and have a very nice weekend.

We are. and have a very nice weekend.

We are joined today by Daniel Crosby, chief behavioral officer at Bricker Capital. Daniel has a PhD in psychology and is the author of some excellent books such as the

behavioral investor and the laws of wealth Daniel sent. Thank you so much for coming
