How To Kill Your Money Demons To Unlock Wealth & Abundance

"Money doesn't work like that. It's got tentacles, and it's like a thread that goes through the carpet of your life, and it touches everything." @markmatson

In this episode, I sit down with Mark Matson, founder and CEO of Matson Money and author of “Experiencing the American Dream.” Mark shares his decades of research on the neuroscience of investing and how our brains are NOT wired for smart financial decisions. We dive deep into the psychological “screens” and “money demons” that hold us back from abundant, wealthy lifestyles and living our dreams. Mark offers a refreshing perspective on how to approach investing using science and data rather than emotions. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to take your finances to the next level, this conversation will change how you think about money and the American Dream.

"If you want to invest for your American dream, you need to use science and math. Not just speculating and gambling on what some billionaire says that they did." @markmatson

And now let’s jump into episode 1675 of The School of Greatness!

"The reality is that those are all flawed methodologies of investing because they're based on prediction of the future. And when you think about that, that's really insane because number one, no one can predict the future." @markmatson
