For example, individuals may be more susceptible to "anchoring bias," which occurs when we depend too strongly on one piece of information (such as stock price) and forget to consider other elements. We may also succumb to the "herding bias," in which we follow the activities of others rather than making our own decisions based on our own financial objectives and requirements.

Knowing about the psychological aspects of money can help us make better financial decisions and attain more financial well-being. By understanding our biases and cognitive mistakes, for example, we may take measures to prevent them and make better informed judgments. Understanding our money mentality allows us to recognize any negative thoughts or behaviors that may be holding us back and strive towards a more positive financial future.
