Investment returns are expected, not promised. To capture them, investors should both intelligently take risks and stick around for the return. In episode 16 of Greenstream, we break down the psychological and behavioral biases that can hold us back. Investors should view these as penalties or unforced errors that make winning your game harder.

You'll learn:

• What we believe to be biases and how they manifest themselves in portfolios
• Why diversification, patience, and tax discipline matter more than you might think
• How the Stockdale Paradox provides a framework for long-term resilience
