Rewiring Your Mindset for Financial Security
Financial security can be greatly improved by altering one’s mindset and decision-making processes around money. Emphasizing that our environment significantly influences financial choices, Dr. Wendy De La Rosa explains that individual willpower alone is often not sufficient for making positive changes. She describes the G.I. Joe fallacy, the misconception that merely knowing what to do about finances is enough to change behaviors.
