Navigating Big Decisions: Frameworks for Financial Planning
In this episode of the Thoughts on Money podcast, host Trevor Cummings, along with Sean Latimer and Blaine Carver, discusses strategies for tackling big life decisions and financial planning. They explore the concept of breaking down overwhelming tasks into manageable steps, using a humorous anecdote about choosing schools for their children and buying a conversion van. The conversation delves into the importance of having a decision-making framework, the paradox of choice, and the key pillars of selecting a financial advisor—advice, custodian, strategy, and plan.
