Educated at Brigham Young and Emory Universities, Dr. Daniel Crosby is a psychologist and behavioral finance expert who studies and writes about the intersection of financial markets and the human brain.
A New York Times best-selling author, Daniel has published several books, including The Laws of Wealth and The Behavioral Investor, which we discuss in this episode. His ideas have appeared in the Huffington Post and Risk Management Magazine, as well as his monthly columns for WealthManagement.com and Investment News. Daniel was named one of the “12 Thinkers to Watch” by Monster.com and a “Financial Blogger You Should Be Reading” by AARP.
In this substantive yet light-hearted conversation, Paul and Daniel examine:
Evolution and how we are the descendants of paranoid, twitchy, and skeptical ancestors
The role of self-esteem in achieving positive financial outcomes
How financial advisors (don’t call them “brokers!”) can keep you from your own worst financial instincts
And, of course…gazelles.
He also shares insights into his guitar and sneaker obsession. (Well, maybe not “fetish,” but “obsession.”)
Please stop reading and have a great day. Paul loves you.
