In this episode of Dollars & Sense, Rob Field and Joel Garris discuss how everyday financial decisions are shaped by both market conditions and personal money habits. They break down the latest market themes, including record highs, corporate earnings, interest rates, inflation, and why investors should review their portfolios even when things seem optimistic.
Rob and Joel also explore how mindset and behavior can impact financial success—from impulse spending and emotional money decisions to simple strategies like the 24-hour rule, monthly money meetings, and creating friction before clicking “Buy Now.” Whether you are trying to stay disciplined in a changing market or build better financial habits, this conversation offers practical reminders for making thoughtful, intentional decisions with your money.
