Why we believe in setting up “Tripwires” in your financial life…

Carl Richards, one of our favorite thinkers on the art of planning and advice – not all financial, shares a great reminder of the value of the “tripwire” in his latest post on his blog site (Behavior Gap). Using a story about a medical procedure he underwent Carl relates, with his typical elegant simplicity, the beauty of the well-designed tripwire.
We believe in a huge way in the tripwire tool. After all we are only human, life is ever more busy and complicated, and mistakes, especially those not caught for a long time, can be expensive.
Please give yourself a well “invested” five minutes to enjoy and think about Carl’s article.

Please jot down 2-3 tripwire opportunities in your life to share with me at our next meeting. They need not be explicitly financial in nature. After all, we have all discovered that the non-financial problem eventually often becomes a financial problem as well.
