Stepping out of the shadow of comparison is not easy, be it life or investing. It is crucial to remember that every portfolio is unique, just like the individual. 
In this episode, Mark Pearson and Chuck Etsweiler discuss the concept of benchmarking and comparison in investing. While benchmarking can hinder clarity and progress towards financial goals, they emphasize the importance of self-awareness and understanding one's own portfolio. They also discuss the advantages of separately managed accounts (SMAs) and the need for collaboration with professionals in different areas to provide a comprehensive financial strategy.
