Okay, late night thoughts hitting hard.
Imagine you're offered two choices:
1. A guaranteed $100.
2. A 50/50 chance of getting $200 or nothing.
Most people pick the guaranteed $100. Now, what if it's:
1. A guaranteed loss of $100.
2. A 50/50 chance of losing $200 or losing nothing.
Suddenly, most people pick the gamble to avoid the sure loss. Same numbers, flipped perspective. Our brains are weird, aren't they? Makes you wonder how many "rational" decisions are just avoiding perceived pain.
