Description

Why do we hate losing money more than we like making it? Why will we hold on to an investment that is making a constant loss hoping it will go back up some day when we know we really should exit and put the money to better use somewhere else?

Kara is a Senior Wealth Manager at Pitcher Partners and has studied Behavioural Economics and the psychology of investing.
