A personal Economic decision that I made was driven by a behavioral Bias rather than pure rational behavior was investing a company called world Ventures. I chose to invest in this “company” because I was fooled into thinking that it was legit. I saw what everyone had accomplished and heard their stories. What I didn’t choose to hear at the time was all the “requirements” that were needed to achieve what had. For instance, I had to try and convince 4 other people that what I was a part of meant something. Looking back if I was given that “Opportunity” to do it again; I would not do it. This is because I have seen what has became of this company/scheme and I have a better understanding of the financial aspects of it.
