Every hour of every day, we’re bombarded by attempts to influence our behavior — what to buy, how to vote, what to click on next…
And most of the time, we are completely oblivious to them.
As humans, we have psychological triggers that, once activated, make us much more vulnerable to the schemes of marketers, politicians and anyone else looking to manipulate us — as well as to separate us from our freedoms and our money.
Nobody understands the science of persuasion better than Dr. Robert Cialdini, famously known as “The Godfather of Influence”. In today’s video — which is one of my favorite interviews I’ve done so far — he identifies the specific techniques being used to pull our strings, and explains how to best defend against them.
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

The goal of many of the psychological tricks being used against us is to shift our brains into a state where our emotions (which are more easily manipulable) overpower our rational mind when it comes to decision-making.
Which is why it’s important to partner with a financial advisor who can help you avoid making irrationally emotional decisions with your money, can craft an appropriate portfolio strategy for you given your needs, and apply sound risk management protection where appropriate:
The new and expanded version of Robert’s seminal book, Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion, can be purchased here.
And anyone interested in scheduling a free consultation and portfolio review with Mike Preston and John Llodra and their team at New Harbor Financial can do so by clicking here.
And if you’re one of the many readers brand new to Peak Prosperity over the past few months, we strongly urge you get your financial situation in order in parallel with your ongoing physical resilience preparations.
We recommend you do so in partnership with a professional financial advisor who understands the macro risks to the market that we discuss on this website. If you’ve already got one, great.
But if not, consider talking to the team at New Harbor. We’ve set up this ‘free consultation’ relationship with them to help folks exactly like you.
