Identifying & Overcoming Cognitive Biases in the FIRE Community (Live CampFI) | MHFI 334

Doug reunites with Carl at CampFI to chat about cognitive biases in the FIRE community – psychological shortcuts and blind spots that influence financial decisions, spending habits, and mindsets.  The pair are joined by Kristen Knapp (FI Friends Travel) & Amberly Grant (FinTalks) to explore how our brains can get in the way of building a fulfilling life.
