Ever held onto losing investments for way too long?
In this debut episode of The Buddh-ish Investor Podcast, I share my struggle with selling underperforming bond ETFs that had been dragging down my portfolio for years – and the breakthrough moment that finally gave me courage to let them go.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why the “disposition effect” keeps us clinging to losing investments
- How loss aversion costs investors an estimated 4% per year
- The transformative power of having a trusted financial advisor
- Why focusing on future potential beats dwelling on past performance
Using the metaphor of a centuries-old Buddhist statue hidden under clay, discover how the right guidance can help chip away obstacles preventing clear-headed investment decisions.
Thanks for listening!
