Is your investing strategy more like going to the gym or visiting the casino?

In the latest episode of the Abundance Mindset, we make a case for disciplined, consistent investing and share data about how disciplined approaches beat emotion-driven market timing. We explain dollar-cost averaging as a de-risking approach that accepts uncertainty and can be useful for both ongoing contributions and deploying lump sums over time.

If you want to take the emotion out of investing and instead build a routine that helps you quietly win over time, this episode is for you.

We're talking ALL about stock concentration risk! Specifically, we're focusing on how equity compensation can tie a person’s paycheck, bonus, and net worth to the same employer. The goal isn’t necessarily to eliminate risk or discourage investing in your employer. Rather, we propose using guardrails instead of gut feelings to objectively manage concentration.
