"It's not that we're dumb. We're wired to avoid pain and pursue pleasure and security. It feels right to sell when everyone around us is scared and buy when everyone feels great. It may feel right-but it's not rational." -From The Behavior Gap Why do we lose money? It's easy to blame the economy or the financial markets-but the real trouble lies in the decisions we make. As a financial planner, Carl Richards grew frustrated watching people he cared about make the same mistakes over and over. They were letting emotion get in the way of smart financial decisions. He named this phenomenon-the distance between what we should do and what we actually do-"the behavior gap." Using simple drawings to explain the gap, he found that once people understood it, they started doing much better. Richards's way with words and images has attracted a loyal following to his blog posts for The New York Times, appearances on National Public Radio, and his columns and lectures. His book will teach you how to rethink all kinds of situations where your perfectly natural instincts (for safety or success) can cost you money and peace of mind. He'll help you to: • Avoid the tendency to buy high and sell low; • Avoid the pitfalls of generic financial advice; • Invest all of your assets-time and energy as well as savings-more wisely; • Quit spending money and time on things that don't matter; • Identify your real financial goals; • Start meaningful conversations about money; • Simplify your financial life; • Stop losing money! It's never too late to make a fresh financial start. As Richards writes: "We've all made mistakes, but now it's time to give yourself permission to review those mistakes, identify your personal behavior gaps, and make a plan to avoid them in the future. The goal isn't to make the 'perfect' decision about money every time, but to do the best we can and move forward. Most of the time, that's enough."
This book is a compact guide about the need for financial planning and future investment in the African American community within the United States. My aim is to provide information and advice about financial literacy, psychology, and the important need to budget and invest for the future. African Americans may be leaving their future down to chance if they do not fully understand the need for self-improvement in financial literacy. There should be an established financial education from an early age to help combat the poor choices that are often made because of this financial illiteracy. You cannot blame a community if the people were never offered any sound financial advice in the first place. Therefore, my wish is to represent and inform African Americans about the benefits of complete financial understanding.
People, as a rule, will work hard within cultural common sense and just assume that all will go well. But, "right now, 90 million Americans are faced with the most critical investment challenges of their lives." They are not prepared and are unsure how they will support themselves when they retire. That cultural common sense must not be working. Financial advisors are taught to advise the majority of people. The median household income in this country is $46,000 a year. Financial institutions are organized around acquiring the masses as clients. The clients of Clearline Financial Group are the top 10% households as defined by annual income and net worth. We are committed to building a firm that will help our clients in areas that matter to then most. Many of our clients have questions like: Am I making the best use of the dollars I am saving? Will I be able to retire and be okay given I may live 25-30 years in retirement? Am I exposed to losing a great deal of my wealth or income if I were to be sued? When I leave this earth what kind of impact will I leave behind? Clearline Financial Group was created as a result of its founder realizing that many people feel as though they have been taken advantage of when meeting with a traditional financial advisor. Often these people are pushed toward a set of pre-packaged investments that aren't tailored to their desires. These potential clients can feel they have lost control of their money and aren't involved in the process. We offer a process that gives our clients the tools to succeed and supplies them with guidance on how to use those tools to achieve their dreams.
Too many smart people let their finances happen to them in a haphazard fashion. When they want to buy something, they examine their checkbook balance, and if there is a sufficient amount to cover the purchase, a few bucks quickly slip away. If the checkbook is devoid of sufficient resources, they revert to Plan B: pull out the plastic money. All of this happens with little regard for the fact that the future is fraught with money-hungry obligations and opportunities.These misguided people have no idea why they are always broke. They may not even realize some of the ways they lose the money they make. As a result, they are destined to live in the proverbial "poorhouse," or at least well below their potential. It is a shame too, because it does not have to be that way. you need to control your money or it will control you. This book will show you how to do that.
