Okay, so I was thinking about this today: if you had to choose between a guaranteed $100 or a 50/50 chance at $200, which one feels like the smarter bet? Most people jump for the $100, right? But mathematically, they're the exact same expected value. Makes you wonder how much of our "smart decisions" are just avoiding perceived risk, even when the odds are identical.
