We all behave irrationally. We pay for expensive gym memberships
and only go once. We spend windfall cash on things we'd never buy
with our salaries. We plan to do nice things in the distant
future, but don't actually write them down in our calendars.
These things can be bad for our happiness, so why do we do them?

Economist Richard Thaler won a Nobel Prize for studying human
irrationality - and explains why we all do odd things sometimes
and how we can guard against being so irrational. Richard is
joined by fellow behavioral economist Alex Imas to explain the
updated insights from the classic book The Winner’s Curse:
Behavioral Economics Anomalies Then and Now.
