The Seduction of Pessimism and the Power of Optimism

Why is it that negative headlines get way more attention than positive headlines? Join us as we revisit The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel to discuss the chapter titled "The Seduction of Pessimism" and share our thoughts on the recent market downturn. We'll also cover a recent Barron's article titled "The Economic Cost of Unhappiness," which contemplates how the unhappiness prevalent among young Americans may impact the wider economy. Finally, we'll close out our discussion with why it pays to stay optimistic.  As always, please consider sharing this episode with a friend, family member, or coworker.
