10-19-2023 Dollars & Sense, Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds

We’re back again with another episode of Dollars & Sense, where we try to provide some financial advice in a language you can understand. We’re in the middle of October, Christmas trees are out in the stores (WHAT?!), and Halloween decorations are up. Today we’re going to have a little bit of fun and talk about some scenarios and situations that we’ve run into here in our office, some conversations we’ve heard on the street, and stuff we’ve seen on TV and in social media.

A great orator has a way of getting in front of a crowd and influencing people to make a decision despite the fact that it makes no sense whatsoever, but because they’re so compelling in the way they present it, they easily build a large following. Kim Kardashian is a prime example here! What influences people to make decisions just really blows us away.

Tune in to this week’s episode of Dollars & Sense as Marc and Marion discuss how the world around us can persuade us to make decisions in a language you can understand.
