A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode of The WPI Podcast, we explore why sticking with your money goals is harder than it seems. Alexander Smith, associate professor in the Department of Social Science and Policy Studies, explains how personal finance is deeply influenced by behavioral economics, or the psychology of decision-making. He describes how emotions and a focus on short-term goals can make it hard to follow a long-term financial plan, and how commitment devices and tapping into motivation can help. Smith outlines six essential rules for building wealth and shares why financial self-awareness is just as important as financial literacy. Aedan Bingham, a student majoring in robotics engineering and economics, also shares his findings from a research project that surveyed college students about what they know and want to know about personal finance. The pair discusses how this research is helping to empower students with knowledge about topics including saving, investing, taxes, and credit.
