Episode 798: Loss Aversion & Human Nature

from The Best Podcast · host Matt Best

We humans are so complex and paradoxical. On the one hand, we experience loss with such greater emotional intensity compared to gains. On the other hand, we are not driven to prevent loss by nature, but instead are driven toward “better” and “more.” I talk through this paradox here, which I hope you find to be useful. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.
