In this episode, Don and Tom dive into a revealing YouGov survey that shows Americans might not be as overconfident as we thought—except when it comes to trustworthiness, loyalty, and… mechanical skills?

Then they outline the traits that actually do make for above-average money managers—like patience, discipline, and optimism—before answering a pair of strong listener questions about asset allocation in retirement and Social Security survivor benefits. 0:04 Kicking off with confessions: Americans may not be as overconfident as we thought 0:35 Only 26% think they’re sexually above average?
