Aaron Agte and Trishul Patel Season 6 Episode 1

How do you navigate the emotional landscape of deciding whether to sell or hold stock when there's no pressing financial goal guiding your choice?

In this episode, Aaron explores a unique situation: a client facing an IPO without needing to sell stock for their lifestyle. Trishul weighs in with the concept of 'homo economicus' and frameworks for handling concentrated stock positions. They delve into the emotional journey of such financial decisions. What's the impact of holding onto stock through a crash, or selling it and seeing it soar? Join us for a deep dive into the complex interplay of finance, emotion, and life-changing choices.
