Financial decisions are endlessly complicated. There’s a huge body of academic literature that tries to study them to look for answers on how to improve decision making while a broad industry of financial advisors also work with investors every day on decisions that affect their financial futures. But there exists a divide between the two. On The Behavioral Divide, presented by Avantis Investors®, host and UCLA Professor Hal Hershfield examines this divide to find insights that may help advisors and investors make better financial decisions.

There are obvious negative effects of financial stress—or financial constraints, in general. But how do financial constraints actually affect our decisions with money or in other areas of our lives?
And while we may associate financial stress with those that have little money, anyone can feel constrained financially. For some, those constraints will be “real”, like truly struggling to make ends meet, and for others it may be more subjective, such as when one has ample income to meet necessities but may feel it’s a challenge to maintain a desired higher standard of living.
On this episode of The Behavioral Divide, host Hal Hershfield examines this topic with Princeton University Professor Anuj Shah and Sam Swift, CEO of TCI Wealth Advisors to better understand how financial stress manifests in individuals across the income spectrum and how we might better manage it.
