We all know there are certain things we should do, like eat right, exercise, get plenty of sleep, etc.

The same is true for retirement saving: we all know we should be saving now for an unknown period of time in retirement.

Multiple studies and surveys have indicated how woefully inadequate average retirement savings are. But head knowledge doesn't always translate into action, into current behavior. What's the disconnect? Why aren't knowledge and education enough to move us to do the "right thing" now?

This webinar will examine several behavioral mental traps, or biases, that can help (or hinder) our ability to save for retirement, as well as suggest ideas for putting these biases to work in a positive way.

In “Behavioral Finance: Why Do We Do the Things We Do” by Michael Wilson you will:

1. Learn to identify several behavioral biases;
2. Understand how the "old" versus "new" brain impacts decision making;
3. Discover how positive psychology can impact financial wellness;
4. Review a brief list of resources for additional insights/learning about behavioral finance.
