230 - Avoiding Emotional Investing: Biblical Guidance

Many have succumbed to the common pitfalls of emotional investing. In this episode, Shawn and Matthew provide some quick, Biblical guidance for avoiding making emotional decisions when it comes to your finances. Unfortunately, emotional investing can lead to poor financial decisions, which in turn can lead to trouble sleeping and being OCD about constantly checking market values.

Instead of letting emotions guide our decision making, especially when it comes to the ups and downs of the market, it can be important to take a step back and take a long-term, disciplined approach to investing.
