WCI #401: Risk vs Reward - How to Find the Balance
Today we are talking about finding balance in our lives. We discuss how to know what our risk tolerance is both in the finance space but also in our lifestyle. It is important to do the things we love that bring us joy, even if there is some risk involved. But at what point do we cross into reckless? We talk about how to know when we are working too hard and are too focused on saving for retirement that we forget to live our lives right now. We also chat with our friend Dr. Jordan Grumet, who will be a keynote speaker this year at WCICON. He is passionate about helping people find meaning in their lives to maximize happiness.
