Show Notes

This season we’re diving into the hot topics and issues that we think you need to know about when it comes to your money. Today, we're talking unconscious biases when it comes to money.

The episode is the result of reactions to an article Mel wrote for a publication that a very lovely gentleman described as a 'moronic analysic' as it dove into the questions:

• Are you in an echo chamber where you're just receiving the same answers from people around you because you all believe the same thing?
• Do you react strongly to something financially without thinking about whether that really is something that you do?
• What would it mean if you were to let go of unconscious bias and consider an alternative point of view?

Todays episode looks at unconscious bias and loss aversion and how you might be inadvertently sabotaging your finances as a result.
