In this episode of Money Talk, I sit down with Jonathan Blau, the founder and CEO of Fusion Family Wealth, to tackle one of the most overlooked but powerful financial habits: ignoring the news. We dig into why obsessing over current events can derail your financial plan, how emotions sneak into our money decisions, and what it actually takes to build a plan that can weather the emotional rollercoaster of investing. Jonathan brings a ton of behavioral insight, and we share practical steps you can take to avoid FOMO, build a resilient plan, and make better decisions with less stress. If you’ve ever felt anxious because of a headline or tempted to time the market, this episode is for you.
