083 - Investing: When "Good" is Bad and "Bad" is Good

When it comes to investing, we tend to have a certain expectation of what we should make per year in the stock market.  Some say 6%-8%, some say 8%-10%, others say 10%-12%.  Regardless of what your expectation is, it causes something to happen in us.  If the annual performance of a given year is above our number, it's a "good" year.....and if it's below our number, it's a "bad" year.  In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses the problems with this mindset.  He explains the truth behind the history of the stock market, how that should impact our perspective, and what to do about it.  Sometimes a "good" year is actually bad, and sometimes a "bad" year is actually good.  Clear as mud?  We hope this episode helps clarify things!
