Make Better Decisions (with Sam Dogen: Financial Samurai)

Everyone is on their own path toward their financial goals. Your job, income, lifestyle, and values all play a role in that. Where are you on your journey? In a job you dislike or looking for ways to make big moves with your finances? Sam Dogen is the force behind Financial Samurai. He's been in the finance industry for decades, starting his career at Goldman Sachs. He quickly realized it wasn't the job he envisioned and he set out on a path to financial independence. He's here today to share his top money lessons and tips from his career. He talks about how to evaluate your net worth, how to think in probabilities instead of absolutes, why winning isn't the same as not losing, the importance of continuing to show up, and more. In our headline segment, we dive into the truth behind "buying the dip". What does it mean and does it work in the long run? We'll explain why it's popular but doesn't always work like people hope. We'll also throw out the Haven Life line to Jess who has a question about her health insurance plan. And of course, Doug will share his trivia.
