Avoid these two biases to increase your savings

Present Bias:

55% of us are prone to Present Bias and it affects our retirement portfolio. Present Bias is a tendency to put off decisions that are likely to benefit us in the long run, but which involve short-term costs. People prone to present bias have on average 19% less in savings than those who are not affected by it.

Exponential Growth Bias:

70% of us are prone to Exponential Growth Bias i.e 70% of us don’t really understand how compounding works and how it can help us grow wealth over decades of savings. Those who have a good grasp of the power of compounding have 20% more money saved than those who don’t understand it too well.

A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is an easy way to beat both the biases by committing to monthly investments.
