Behavioral finance (a combination of economics and
psychology) shows that we make many of our investment decisions for
emotional reasons rather than economic ones. We are all programmed to
needlessly give up half of our real return to other investors, trusted
professionals, and taxes without a clue that we are actually doing so.
Wealth Logic is a fee-only based financial advisory firm that develops a
financial plan and investment strategy designed to create wealth for you,
rather than an income stream for someone else. It is based on the belief
that, if you can give up some emotional return, you can double your real
economic return.
Warren Buffett said it best: "Investors should
remember that excitement and expenses are their enemies."
Please explore this website open to the possibility that traditional
investing may be better for Wall Street than it is for you. Please click here
if you would like to subscribe to periodic mailings including my
personal finance columns in the Colorado Springs Business Journal.
I hope to be able to convince you of our value proposition “you get what you
don’t pay for.”
Allan S. Roth, MBA, CPA, CFP®
