"It's Not Just About Finance"

No One is Immune to Fear and Greed

Fear and Greed have been falsely labeled as the driving forces behind the markets.  But don’t misunderstand me here.  These two base emotions are powerful and no one is immune to them.

However, fear AND greed are overrated.

The problem is most of us are hardwired to fear and greed as our default mechanism.

Therein lies the problem.

The boyz in the “Club” understand our built-in default process and use it to constantly pick your pockets.  They know that in order for the markets to make major moves, 99% of investors have to be wrong.

And in order for the 99% to be wrong the “Club” must constantly feed you false information.  (Remember, they OWN the media).

Many of you know exactly what I’m talking about.  But to prove the point, take 10 seconds and answer this question:  “What motivates you more, Fear or Greed?” (one thousand one…one thousand two…)

Times up.  What did you choose?

Forgive me.  That was a trick question.

You see, regardless of whether you chose fear or greed, you automatically defaulted to one or the other.

See?

That’s how they get you;

It’s the old “Look here, don’t look there” tactic.

And a classic example of this is the current onslaught of immigration stories to distract you from the IG hearings on the FBI, Clinton emails, etc.

But, I digress.

The good news is you can re-program your internal default mechanism just like you would with your computer.

But here’s the key.  It won’t happen unless YOU take action.

We show you the process in our July edition of Simplifying Wall Street in Plain English. 

Get in on the action.
