FOMO, or Fear of missing out, is a troubling feeling that impacts us all.

It’s the stomach-wrenching feeling on Friday night when you are so tired from the week's hard work, but all of your friends are going out.

It’s the urge to watch your favourite sporting event, even though it’s playing at a crazy hour of the night.

We all just don’t want to miss or waste potential opportunities in front of us.

And the exact same feeling applies to investing. But in investing, falling into the feeling of FOMO could have not the best impact on your portfolio.

So how do you avoid it? How do you stay cool when you’re friends are telling you to invest in the next “hot trend”?

All of that and more to come in today’s episode.

To do this, we spoke to Simran Kaur, who’s the founder of Girls That Invest, one of the fastest-growing investment podcasts in the world.
