Totally them. I've been reading the new Dan Ariely lately, which is about the stupid ways we think about money. It's not a bad book but if you're well-versed in pop economics you probably know most of the book already. With this latest Bitcoin rise from 1k-17k I also wondered if I made a mistake - but then I remembered that I have no freakin' clue how to call the top, and neither does your friend. I probably would've gotten out at 2k if I'd bought at 1k.Was it Tversky and Kahneman that calculated humans are five times as affected by a loss as they are as a gain? He would have been up 0%, instead he's up 100% but he could have been up 17,000% therefore I'm the bad guy.
