In this week’s episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO and Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, uncovers the surprising ways investors sabotage their own success. Despite strong market performance, studies show that the average investor consistently underperforms - by as much as 5% per year. Why? Behavioral biases.
Key highlights of the episode include:
•The Dow Bar study’s shocking findings on why investors consistently earn 5% less than the market.
•How overconfidence causes even successful professionals to make costly financial mistakes.
•Why recency bias leads investors to chase trends and panic during downturns.
•The impact of confirmation bias and how it keeps investors from seeing the full picture.
•Real-world examples of billionaires, fund managers, and everyday investors who fell into these traps.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
