Think and Grow Rich…Really?! | How to Money and 5AM Joel - E59

Author: Jesse Cramer July 19, 2023 Duration: 55:16

What kind of mood would you find yourself in if a tree fell onto your house? Would it ruin your day? Our guests might have something to say about that…

 

Joining me today are two of the most outrageously optimistic, enthusiastic experts in personal finance, Joel O'Leary and Joel Laarsgard.

 

I'll often have clients come in and say, "Jesse, we really want to approach things conservatively. I mean after all, you've seen the news, right? We know we're heading into a recession." And on one hand, of course, we want to be paying attention to the economy, but what do the short term fluctuations in the news cycle really mean to us over the span of 30 years? We shouldn't let a negative bias harm our long-term financial health. 

 

Today we discuss if there's truly a force behind the power of positivity and what it could mean in your financial situation. After all, one of Joel's favorite quotes is "invest like an optimist and save like a pessimist." So, join me in this lighthearted conversation as we break it all down.

The Best Interest Podcast is a personal podcast meant for educational and entertainment. It should not be taken as financial advice, and is not prescriptive of your financial situation.


Navigating the world of money can feel overwhelming, with a constant stream of conflicting tips and trendy, quick-fix schemes.

Host Jesse Cramer brings a unique perspective to the conversation, transitioning from his background as an aerospace engineer to his work as a fiduciary financial advisor.

Each episode delves into the mechanics and mindset required for that journey, exploring topics like retirement planning, intelligent investing, and the behavioral aspects of managing money. You'll find discussions that go beyond surface-level advice, examining the "why" behind proven strategies and how to apply them to your own life. The tone is conversational and grounded, avoiding financial jargon in favor of clear explanations. It’s a resource for anyone tired of the hype and seeking a sustainable path forward. By focusing on evidence-based ideas and patient execution, this podcast aims to provide listeners with the tools and confidence to build a secure financial future on their own terms.
