Episode notes

One of our American pastimes is trying to determine when the “right time to buy” is. We’re obsessed with this idea that once a stock market crash occurs, it will be the perfect time to invest. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton attempts to dispel this myth (yes, myth). History, statistics, and behavioral science continually prove that we’re almost always better off if we just invest money when we have money. Hope you enjoy this one!
