1 小时 12 分钟So my guest today is Jill Schlesinger.
She's an Emmy nominated and Gracie award winning business analyst for CB's News.
And Jill, she covers the economy, markets, investing, kind of anything else with a dollar sign on tv and also on the Jill on Money podcast and her nationally syndicated show, Jill on money.
But before stepping into the world of financial news and advice, she actually spent 14 years as the co owner and chief investment advisor for an independent advisory firm.
And that was after following in her dad's footsteps as a trader on the floor of the New York Commodities Exchange, which back in the day when she was doing this, was kind of known as a bit of a brutal place to exist.
And she discovered that her heart was more in understanding the psychology of money and sort of like why people interact with it in certain ways and then helping people make better decisions that enable better lives.
And that same curiosity has led to Jill's first book, the dumb thing smart people do with their money.
That reveals so many of the completely irrational things that we do in the name of money, sometimes getting more of it, sometimes completely avoiding it.
And so much of the conditioning that we get from family and society that leads to these completely aberrant decisions.
And also we talk about what we can sort of like, do about all of these things.
Really excited to share this wide ranging conversation with you.
I'm Jonathan Fields, and this is good life project.
I had a town that was very involved in our soccer team.
We had the.
This is crazy.
Now you'll know the deepest, darkest secret of my life.
Now bring it on.
All right.
So my soccer team in high school was undefeated for four years of high school.
We broke a Guinness book of world records streak, four consecutive wins.
