MONTREAL and TORONTO, May 7, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - Carl Richards, author of The Behavior Gap: Simple Ways to Stop Doing Dumb Things with Money will be PWL Capital's keynote speaker.
"It's not that we're dumb. We're wired to avoid pain and pursue pleasure and security. It feels right to sell when everyone around us is scared and buy when everyone feels great. It may feel right-but it's not rational." - From The Behavior Gap
As a financial planner, Carl Richards grew frustrated watching people he cared about make the same mistakes over and over with their money. They were letting emotion get in the way of making smart financial decisions. He named this phenomenon-the distance between what we should do and what we actually do- "the behavior gap." Using simple drawings to explain the gap, he found that once people understood it, they started doing much better.
PWL Capital is thrilled to host Carl Richards as our keynote speaker at a series of exclusive presentations in Toronto - May 22nd (evening), in Ottawa - May 23rd (noon) and in Montreal - May 23rd (evening). Please click here to view the complete PDF
