So, it all operates from the premise that the highest value that a financial advisor adds to her or his clients’ lives comes through behavioral coaching.” – Dr. Daniel Crosby ● “One of the first things you learn as a psychologist is that self-reported behavior is a horrible measure of actual behavior.” – Dr. Daniel Crosby ● “One of the critiques of other measures of risk-taking behavior is that they’ll ask questions in a vacuum, like, ‘if you lost $10,000, would that be a big deal or not?’ If you have $10 million, it is not a very big deal.” – Dr. Daniel Crosby Resources Mentioned: ● Facebook – Jason Pereira’s Facebook ● LinkedIn – Jason Pereira’s LinkedIn ● FintechImpact.co – Website for Fintech Impact ● JasonPereira.ca – Sign up for Jason Pereira’s newsletter ● Linkedin – Dr. Daniel Crosby’s Linkedin ● The Behavioral Investor by Dr. Daniel Crosby – Book by Dr. Daniel Crosby ● The Laws of Wealth by Dr. Daniel Crosby – Book by Dr. Daniel Crosby Hosted on Acast.
