Overcoming Status Quo Bias

Many of us prefer things to stay the same, even when change could lead to better outcomes. This desire to play it safe may have costly effects on your finances. 

The good news is that you can identify and overcome your own status quo bias. Here are some strategies that might help:

  1. Make Small Changes
    Small, manageable adjustments to your investments and financial strategies can help ease you into a new approach.
