You can go in the supermarket and get some stuff that's good for you and you can get some stuff that's bad for you. So, we need to be aware of what we're investing in based on our risk tolerance and based on our goals.” – Chris Hogan “The market is down, but do not eject: stay focused and not finished, because it's going to rebound.” – Chris Hogan “If we make short-term emotional decisions regarding our long-term financial well-being, we'll end up in trouble.” – Brian Buffini “I tell people: I'm not worried about what's going on at the White House, we need to focus on what's going on in your house. And so, getting a plan for debt reduction, getting on a balanced spending plan, a budget, and having reserves for the future and saving an investment for the future. If you can't wake up and see the importance of this, then you're not paying attention.” – Chris Hogan “What we need to be doing is learning from this. Feel the pain and use that pain to make progress.” – Brian Buffini “This can be the ultimate personal growth experience for people, and they can learn from it and go forward and build a financial fortress that can withstand any storm in the future.” Brian Buffini “They say information without application is just information; but information that gets applied has an opportunity to become wisdom.” – Chris Hogan “When people ask me, ‘Hogan, how are you?’ I say I'm focused and not finished. That means I'm focused on what I want. And I'm not finished yet.” – Chris Hogan “I want us to focus on the spirit of gratitude. It's so easy to get caught up on what we don't have. I think it's important for us to be aware of what we do.” – Chris Hogan “It's hard to be hateful when you're grateful.” – Chris Hogan   https://www.TheBrianBuffiniShow.com http://www.brianbuffini.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brian_buffini Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brianbuffini Twitter: https://twitter.com/brianbuffini Theme Music:  “The Cliffs of Moher” by Brogue Wave Hosted on Acast.
