Ep. 4 - Fear, Greed & Financial Triggers: Investologist Ed Butowski on Building Wealth Without Losing Your Mind

In this episode of Triggered with Whitney Kell, Whitney sits down with Ed Butowski — managing partner of Chapwood Investments, author of Wealth Mismanagement and Never Go Broke, and self-described "investologist" — for a raw, real conversation between advisor and client.Ed breaks down why fear and greed (not individual investors) actually move the markets, how institutions get judged on performance just like the rest of us, and why panic-selling during moments of crisis — like war headlines — almost always costs you more than it saves. He and Whitney dig into the emotional psychology behind money decisions, drawing surprising parallels between financial triggers and the same fear-based patterns that derail health goals and diets.Along the way, they explore why greed gets a bad rap it doesn't deserve, how competition and capitalism drive innovation, what it really takes to build a successful business, and why trust and education — not just returns — are the real foundation of a good advisor relationship.Part one of a two-part conversation. Part two goes even deeper into personal triggers and the surprising connection between food and investing.Find Ed: chapwoodinvestments.com | edbutowski.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
