Confidence Corner

You may hear of a lot of financial things that sound good, but are they actually overrated? Over the next two shows, we’ll talk about things that are overrated and then later, underrated. When preparing for this particular episode, Nathan had the book The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel in mind. This book of essays talks about how money messes with your mind and is an easy and enjoyable read. If this sounds like a good book for you, Nathan is giving a few away! Find out how on today’s show.

Here’s what we talk about on today’s show:

  • Tax advantages can be oversold. 7:38
  • Rates of return aren’t all you want to pay attention to. 10:04
  • Commission-based investment accounts may not be right for you. 15:31
