Taming The Elephant

Is Your Elephant in Charge?

When it comes to their money, most people think they use their intellect to make rational financial decisions. Patrick Carroll, the president of Wealth Strategies Group explains in his educational CD, Taming the Elephant, why that is not true. He explains that most people make financial decisions based on their emotions – and this can get them into trouble.

Patrick says the six primary emotions people feel about money are fear, greed, confusion, secure, powerless and alone. “When people let these emotions make the decisions about their money, they often make the wrong decisions. For example, if you feel fear, you might hoard all your money and not enjoy your life. If you feel greed, you might take too much risk and end up losing a lot of money. But by understanding these emotions, and taking charge of them, you can have a much healthier and more effective relationship with money.”

This educational CD was created to help you understand how your emotions may affect many of the financial decisions you make in your life.
