Controlling Your Emotions When Investing



Hello and welcome back to the 360 Money Matters podcast! Whether you’re a first-time investor or have plenty of experience, it is very easy for emotions and fear to get the better of you and for rational decisions to be blinded by emotion.

 

In this episode, we’ll be turning a little more towards the psychology of investing, where we discuss the importance of continuing the course and blocking out all the unnecessary noise. We will discuss various strategies to combat making emotional investment decisions and help ensure that you are making rational decisions with your money.

 

So be sure to join in on the conversation as we talk about how you can overcome your investment fears!
