593. Be Aware Of Accidental Bias

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We all have a subconscious bias that we carry from our backgrounds and life experiences. We might believe that something is totally unbiased and true, but the reality is that there’s a lot of influence behind-the-scenes that we’re not aware of, and it can influence big decisions you make that will affect your own life. To keep you aware of accidental bias, I’m sharing two examples of where I’ve seen accidental bias come into play recently and my (unbiased) advice for how to stay aware of that. I get into what you should be looking for in your financial advisors and debunk a myth about renting vs. buying that I saw on a realtor’s viral TikTok video. When it comes to taking advice from people, like my dad always said, follow the money. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How to figure out if someone is dishing out biased advice </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Why you should always go with a fiduciary financial advisor</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Where I see many realtor’s accidental bias come into play </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How to become a leaner, meaner, better decision maker </span></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Text DAILY to 310-421-0416 to get daily Money Mantras or Business Perspective messages to boost your day.  </span></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>CONNECT WITH CHRIS</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Follow Me:</span> <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/chriswharder/?hl=en"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">@chriswharder</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Visit My Website:</span> <a href="https://chrisharder.me"><span style= "font-
