Daniel Crosby

Daniel Crosby is a psychologist and behavioral finance author whose work examines how human behavior shapes investing and wealth decisions. His notable books include Personal Benchmark, The Laws of Wealth, and The Behavioral Investor. A New York Times bestselling author, he has produced multiple Axiom Business Book Award-winning titles, with The Laws of Wealth translated into 12 languages.

Biografía y Trayectoria del Autor

Daniel Crosby’s professional story begins at the intersection of inheritance and reinvention. He entered college expecting to follow his father into financial advising, then changed course after a two-year church mission that sharpened his interest in human behavior and service. Public biographies describe him as educated at Brigham Young and Emory Universities; an earlier professional profile lists B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in psychology from Brigham Young. Near the end of doctoral training, he found himself burned out on clinical work, and a job assessing bank executives before hire reconnected psychology with finance. That turn gave him the problem that would define his career: why smart, informed people still make poor money decisions.
