Episode 70: Looking Beyond the Headlines: Staying Focused on Your Financial Goals

In this episode, President and Senior Financial Planner Paul L. Moffat and co-host Director of Financial Planning Jordan Naffa tackle the distraction and anxiety caused by sensational financial headlines. From tariff disputes to market drops, the media thrives on fear and urgency, often prompting investors to make emotional, short-term decisions that can derail long-term success.

Paul and Jordan share examples from recent years, highlight the psychology behind headline-driven reactions, and explain why tuning out the noise is essential for protecting your portfolio. They also discuss how having a professional “referee” between you and your investments can help you stay disciplined when markets get volatile.

In this episode:

●     Headlines are designed to capture attention, not guide your financial plan.

●     Media often plays on emotions like fear, greed, and urgency to drive clicks and sales.

●     Successful investors focus on discipline and long-term strategy, not daily news cycles.

●     Emotional decision-making can be reduced by working with a trusted financial advisor.

●     Your financial success is built on sticking to your plan, not reacting to headlines.
