Take the Bet

Watched Would You Take This Bet? by Veritasium from youtu.be

How much would it take for you to risk $10?

I like how he takes this lesson about loss aversion and taking lots of little bets with equal odds of winning and losing, and encourages people to make little bets in their lives when winning could make their lives better. Even if you win and lose as often, overall you’ll come out ahead.

I like this reminder as a pretty risk averse person.
