Episode 129: God humans are stupid

About this episode

The episode discusses the common decision-making problems investors face and emphasizes building a better investing framework.

Most investors do not have an information problem. They have a decision-making problem. Every week, Steve Moriarty, Tom Hill, and Jacob Senior from Total Money Management help you cut through the noise and think more clearly about markets, money, risk, and long-term investing. This is not a podcast about chasing hot tips, reacting to headlines, or pretending anyone can predict the future. It is about building a better investing framework. We cover market cycles, valuation, portfolio structure, investor behaviour, risk management, and the principles that help you protect capital and make calmer decisions when everyone else is emotional. If you want to become a more disciplined investor, start with our free Investor Personality Map. It will help you understand how you naturally make decisions with money, where your strengths are, and where your blind spots may be costing you.
