  • The Surprising Benefits of Financial Inaction (SB1653)
    Feeling the pressure to constantly tweak your investments? Today, we uncover the surprising benefits of financial inaction with insights from CFP Dana Anspach, Len Penzo, and OG. We dive into the wisdom of sometimes doing nothingā€”because, as it turns out, sitting on your hands (financially speaking) can be a power move. Why lazy portfolio management might be the smartest strategy youā€™ll ever adopt (spoiler: it involves less work). The power of downtimeā€”turns out, stepping away from your money might actually make you richer. Why your future self will thank you for setting up auto-pay (hint: fewer late fees, more naps). The sneaky ways peer pressure messes with your financesā€”and how to keep the Joneses from running your budget. When rebalancing your portfolio is necessaryā€¦and when itā€™s just a fancy way to micromanage yourself. A wildly unexpected insurance claim (because finances are never boring in the basement). Oh, and Dougā€™s got a trivia question about a particularly controversial activity that was bannedā€”because, apparently, not everything fun is legal. Stick around for weekend plans, final thoughts, and maybe even a surprise or two (because we like to keep you on your toes). This episode originally aired on June 10, 2022.
