8 costly mistakes investors make

"If there's one question that investors have asked themselves over the past year and a half, it's that one. If only I had acted differently, they say. If only, if only, if only.
Yet here's the problem: While we know we made investment mistakes, and vow not to repeat them, most people have only the vaguest sense of what those mistakes were, or, more importantly, why they made them. Why did we think and feel and behave as we did? Why did we act in a way that today, in hindsight, seems so obviously stupid? Only by understanding the answers to these questions can we begin to improve our financial future."
