Episode 1: Finding Your Financial Golden Buddha

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!
