My friend Barry Ritholtz has spent his career being an astute market observer, investigating behavioral finance and data analytics. He runs Ritholtz Wealth Management which has been named ETF Advisor of the Year, Financial Times Top 300 Advisors, and one of America's fastest-growing RIAs. He's also the host of Masters in Business, Bloomberg Radio's most popular podcast (50+ million streams/downloads), which he started way back in 2014.

1 What's best: a brand new phone or a day out with your friends? Is it better to spend money to buy things or to do things? A study of UK consumers showed that six in ten people would rather spend their money on experiences than material possessions. Those aged 18-34 reported spending the highest amount on fun activities.1什么是最好的:全新的电话或与您的朋友一起出去? 花钱买东西或做事更好吗? 对英国消费者的一项研究表明,十分之六的人宁愿将钱花在经验上而不是物质财产上。 年龄18-34岁的人报告说,在有趣的活动上花费最高。2 Possessions can last for many years, while experiences are fleeting. This, however, might be the wrong way to look at things. Psychology professor Thomas Gilovich discovered that the happiness that objects provide can fade quickly. We adapt to having new possessions, so that rather than being something we are excited by, they just become our new normal. Soon we may even want to buy a better version of the things we own. Our feelings around possessions can also be affected by others. We tend to compare what we have with other people. If someone else has something better, we can start to feel envious.2财产可以持续多年,而经历正在转瞬即逝。 但是,这可能是看事物的错误方法。 心理学教授托马斯·吉洛维奇(Thomas Gilovich)发现,物体提供的幸福会很快消失。 我们适应拥有新财产,因此,他们只是成为我们的新常态,而不是成为我们感到兴奋的事物。 很快,我们甚至可能想购买我们拥有的物品的更好版本。 我们对财产的感觉也可能受到他人的影响。 我们倾向于将自己的东西与他人进行比较。 如果其他人有更好的事情,我们可以开始感到嫉妒。3 A holiday or a day out may have a short duration, but the happiness it provides can last much longer. Waiting for our latest purchases to be delivered is frustrating, but waiting for an exciting event gives us a feeling of anticipation. Experiences are often shared, so we gain pleasure from social connection and time spent with other people. Memories of our experiences become part of our identity. As Gilovich points out, we are the sum of our experiences. Indeed, the very fact that experiences last for a limited time can give them value. A physical good deteriorates over time, while our memories of an experience can give us pleasure year after year.3假期或一天的休息时间可能持续很短,但是它提供的幸福可以持续更长的时间。 等待我们最新的购买交付令人沮丧,但是等待激动人心的活动使我们有一种期待的感觉。 经验经常分享,因此我们从与他人度过的社交联系和时间中获得了乐趣。 对我们经历的记忆成为我们身份的一部分。 正如吉洛维奇(Gilovich)指出的那样,我们是我们的经验总和。 确实,经验持续有限的时间可以使他们有价值。 随着时间的流逝,身体的好处会恶化,而我们对体验的记忆可以使我们年复一年。4 Of course, it's not always that simple. Other studies have suggested that happiness gained from experiences might depend on your personality type, and how many possessions you already have. People with more introverted personality types may get less benefit from social occasions and those with few possessions may get greater benefit from objects. However, for many of us, it could be that when choosing how to spend our disposable income, we'll get far more benefit by spending on something to do, rather than something to have.4当然,这并不总是那么简单。 其他研究表明,从经验中获得的幸福可能取决于您的性格类型以及您已经拥有多少财产。 具有内向的人格类型的人在社会场合中可能会获得较少的好处,而那些拥有财产很少的人可能会从物体中获得更大的好处。 但是,对于我们许多人来说,可能是在选择如何花费我们的可支配收入时,我们会通过花费一些东西而不是要拥有的东西来获得更多的好处。

Why do some companies consistently outshine their rivals, attract top talent, and spark innovation while others struggle? Many treat employee relationships like a simple transaction—initial excitement fades, and so does satisfaction. This leaves companies with disengaged teams and high turnover. In today's Leadership Spark, we'll explore how top companies have figured out the key to shifting from a transactional approach to one that treats employment as an enriching experience. Based on prominent psychologist Thomas Gilovich's research, it's clear: investing in experiences, not just tools, boosts satisfaction over time. We dive into the evolution from productivity-driven workplaces to purpose-led organizations that emphasize mutual value exchange, fostering a culture of growth, learning, and leadership. Discover how the employee experience era is redefining the way we think about work. ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

“Get your butterflies in formation”. If you take one thing away from this episode, it's how to handle the nervous, anxious, flutter of stomach butterflies that arises when we're socially anxious. Social interactions can be challenging. You may believe that everyone else has all their shit figured out and can effortlessly walk into a social situation and just be themselves. But it turns out, we all, at some point, get social anxiety. In this episode, our resident psychologist Dr Emily, delves deeper into what it means to experience social anxiety, before during & after a social situation. She explores the ways in which anxiety shows up, where it might come from and what we can do to “get our butterflies in formation”.

In this episode of the Awareness to Action Enneagram podcast, Mario Sikora, María José Munita and Seth "Creek" Creekmore address listeners' concerns and feedback on centers and provide a further explanation of what ATA teaches instead. They discuss how they address emotional intelligence with their clients and within their own understanding of human nature.“Now again, emotions and feelings are the data that we have to think about in the context of our environment.” -Mario [17:28]“My thinking skills allow me to not fool myself with a bad narrative. With those feelings, we will explain them somehow, that's for sure. Now, those explanations, the better they are, the more effective we'll be in moving forward. So we need to learn to interpret our feelings, to know ourselves the best way we can, to see how we're fooling ourselves, and that we have to do through thinking.” -María José [18:46]“I do sense like this thing that I hear constantly, as if processing emotions has nothing to do with thinking or your brain.

Is the smartest person in the room also the wisest? Not necessarily. So what does it mean to be wise, and how do you go about finding that wisdom in life? Thomas Gilovich is the Irene Blecker Rosenfeld Professor of Psychology at Cornell University. His work in social psychology includes the key textbook in the field, and has written books that touch on topics such as behavioral economics and the fallibility of human reason.Thomas and Greg discuss what it means to truly be wise, whether or not more wisdom leads to more happiness in life, and how to train ourselves to see beyond our subjective perception of the world. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Should we start with an understanding of the self in order to gain a better understanding of other people?54:05: We have this great capacity to zoom in, zoom out, look at things from a variety of different angles. And, if you do that well, that's going to give you a better understanding of other people and a better understanding of yourself. So, let's look at it from my perspective. Let's look at it from their perspective, and so on. That is part and parcel of what wisdom is—turning things around to look at a hard problem from a variety of different angles. And, if that's a big component of wisdom, it would be surprising if wisdom was located in one area rather than the other.Wisdom is where rational understanding meets human insights03:45: To be wise and effective in this world means that you need to understand all that we've learned about rational choice, logic, etc., and combine that with knowledge of people.Why construal principle is a big component of wisdom25:26: One of the biggest principles of social psychology is the so-called "construal principle," which is that there's a reality out there. But we don't respond to that reality. We respond to how we interpret that reality. And knowing that's what we're reacting to is a big component of wisdom; it allows us to understand where other people are coming from, especially when their behavior on the surface immediately may not make sense to us. So, what does it mean to them that they're reacting that way? It's a big part of wisdom.Considering happiness as a talent, not just a trait34:35: We think of happiness as a trait, which at some level of description it is, but maybe it's better to think of it as a talent: happy people have the talent to make all these mental moves and arrange their lives in such a way that they will be happier.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Solomon AschGeorge Carlin - Idiot and ManiacLeon FestingerThe Happiness Hypothesis: Finding Modern Truth in Ancient Wisdom by Jonathan HaidtHappy City: Transforming Our Lives Through Urban Design by Charles MontgomeryKurt LewinDaniel KahnemanThe Replication CrisisGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at Cornell UniversityAuthor's Profile at SageThomas Gilovich on LinkedInHis Work:Social Psychology (6th Edition)Heuristics and Biases: The Psychology of Intuitive JudgmentHow We Know What Isn't So: The Fallibility of Human Reason in Everyday LifeWhy Smart People Make Big Money Mistakes And How To Correct Them: Lessons From The New Science Of Behavioral EconomicsThe Wisest One in the Room: How You Can Benefit from Social Psychology's Most Powerful InsightsMore scholarly articles
A reprise of Paul Ehrlich's candid conversation with us on the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, in April of 2020. We discuss the COVID pandemic, overpopulation, The Population Bomb (including an amusing mistake on the cover), dinner with Johnny Carson, the deficits of our university system, the climate crisis, and human civilization's prospects (“I'm very pessimistic about the future but very optimistic about what we could do”). Dr. Paul Ehrlich is most famous for co-writing The Population Bomb (1968). He is Bing Professor of Population Studies, Emeritus at Stanford University, and founded the Center for Conservation Biology at Stanford.

We've never invested more time, more money, or more resources into employee engagement programs. We spend billions of dollars every year, but around the world, employee engagement scores aren't improving. Why? Because it's the employee experience that creates an engaged workforce. And an engaged workforce impacts ROI. If you want to have an engaged workforce, start by investing in the experience of your people. This is based on a concept created by a psychologist named Thomas Gilovich. He realized that if you invest in a physical good, your satisfaction goes down over time. However, if you invest in an experience, over time, your satisfaction goes up.

The origin of the Hot Hand Fallacy was actually specific to basketball. The "Hot Hand in Basketball" study came out in 1985, done by Thomas Gilovich, one of the authors of “How We Know What Isn't So” among other books, and Amos Tversky, who is credited with a lot of prominent studies like this with a guy named Daniel Kahneman.

"Um dos inimigos da felicidade é a adaptação”, diz Dr. Thomas Gilovich, um professor de psicologia na Universidade de Cornell que estuda a questão do dinheiro e felicidade por mais de duas décadas. Então ao invés de comprar o mais recente iPhone ou um monte de roupas novas, Gilovich sugere que você terá mais felicidade se gastar seu dinheiro em experiências como ir a exposições de arte, fazendo atividades ao ar livre, aprender uma nova habilidade, ou viajando.

He's been the recipient of several awards. The author of three influential books, Human Inference and the Person and the Situation (both with Richard Nisbett) and, more recently, The Wisest One in the Room (with Thomas Gilovich), and many highly cited papers. His research on attributional biases and shortcomings in human inference has exerted a major impact in social psychology and the field of human inference, judgment and decision-making. Among the phenomena he identified and has explored are the fundamental attribution error, the false consensus effect, reactive devaluation, the hostile media phenomenon, and the convictions of naïve realism. In this episode, we cover the psychological phenomena that were the main targets of Dr. Ross' academic research. These include: the fundamental attribution error; the just world phenomenon; cultural differences in how people apply the fundamental attribution error; naïve realism, the false consensus effect, and objectivity in the eye of the beholder; reactive devaluation in the case of trying to solve a problem between opposing human groups or political parties; and the possible ways to get around these human cognitive inclinations.

Viver experiências ou ficar no sofá? “Nós somos a soma total daquilo que vivemos”, afirmou Thomas Gilovich, pesquisador da Cornell University. Quando compramos coisas elas estão fora da gente. Quando optamos por vivenciar experiências, elas se incorporam na nossa vida. E, muitas vezes, tornam-se inesquecíveis. Podemos não lembrar da vida que vivemos na semana passada, aquela rotina do dia-a-dia. No entanto, quando tomamos um banho de chuva, vamos a uma cachoeira, passarmos um dia mexendo na horta, caminhamos numa região…

Finalement, l'argent fait bien le bonheur L’argent peut bel et bien[1] faire votre bonheur, à condition que[2] vous en fassiez un bon usage[3]. Entre l’achat d’un objet matériel et la participation à une nouvelle expérience : quelle option choisiriez‐vous ? Une certaine logique pourrait vous pousser[4] à dépenser votre argent sur des objets plutôt[5] que sur des expériences, car l’objet durera plus dans le temps et, de ce fait[6], il apportera du bonheur plus longtemps qu’une expérience. Cependant[7], de nouvelles recherches démontrent que dépenser de l’argent sur des expériences plutôt que sur des objets nous rendrait heureux à plus long terme[8]. Le Dr. Thomas Gilovich, professeur en psychologie à l’Université de Cornell, a mesuré[9] le niveau de bonheur d’un groupe de personnes suite à d’importants achats matériels et expérientiels[10]. Au début, chacun des achats rendait les participants également heureux. En revanche, au bout de quelque temps, le niveau de bonheur ressenti grâce à l’achat des objets a diminué alors que le niveau de satisfaction lié aux achats d’expériences a augmenté. L’adaptation[11] : l’un des ennemis[12] du bonheur « Nous achetons des choses pour nous rendre heureux, et nous réussissons. Mais seulement pour un certain temps. Les nouvelles choses nous excitent[13] au départ[14], mais ensuite nous nous adaptons à elles » affirme le Dr. Gilovich. Au fil du temps[15], nous devenons si habitués au matériel qui nous entoure[16] qu’il cesse[17] d’être spécial et ainsi d’être une source[18] de bonheur. Nous sommes le résultat de nos expériences Dans un article publié dans le Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, un chercheur de l'Université du Colorado aux États‐Unis décrit les facteurs[19] qui pourraient expliquer pourquoi les expériences apportent plus de joie[20] que les biens matériels : Elles se prêtent[21] davantage à des réinterprétations positives : car nos expériences sont perçues[22] comment les agents[23] bâtisseurs[24] de ce que nous sommes aujourd’hui. Les expériences favorisent[25] davantage[26] les relations sociales lesquelles sont profondément reliées[27] au bonheur : car on a tendance à vivre les expériences avec d'autres, et souvent[28] il est plus intéressant de parler d’expériences vécues que d’objets matériels. Alors en ce qui concerne[29] l’achat du bonheur, nous vous conseillons de privilégier[30] l’accumulation[31] de souvenirs mémorables[32] sur vos photos et dans votre esprit[33], plutôt que d’accumuler des objets dans votre maison.

Bloomberg View columnist Barry Ritholtz interviews Thomas Gilovich, the Irene Blecker Rosenfeld Professor of Psychology at Cornell University. He has conducted research in social psychology, decision making and behavioral economics, and is best known for his research in heuristics and biases in the field of social psychology. He is the author of several books, including "How We Know What Isn't So: The Fallibility of Human Reason in Everyday Life," and is the co-author (with Amos Tversky) on the seminal study on the myth of the “Hot Hand” in the NBA. His most recent research explored experiential and material consumption and what makes people happy.
Camilla Benbow and David Lubinski spent their lives studying child geniuses. Their advice on how to create a baby Einstein? Do nothing. Then, conspiracy theories have gotten a lot of attention in the last year, but psychologist Rob Brotherton says they've been around for a long time. And finally, Thomas Gilovich thinks he can make you wise... or at least, the wisest person in the room.

Want to become wise? Well, you should first figure out what wisdom actually is. Psychology Professor Thomas Gilovich explains.
It’s incredibly difficult to put yourself in the shoes of another person. We just can’t ignore the knowledge we have that others don’t. This “curse of knowledge” is common in teaching, argument, political discourse, conflict resolution. It’s clear that all opinions are not equal, but it’s hard to know when your opinion is the bad one. Is it possible to genuinely consider your opponent’s position without dismissing it outright?

How good are we at understanding each other? Other people are complicated, so when we try to guess what they’re thinking we often get it wrong. Even with our partners! Research suggests that partners are hardly any better (and sometimes worse) at guessing what each other believe or feel than a stranger. In this wide ranging conversation with Professor Nicholas Epley from Booth School of Business at Chicago University, and author of Mindwise: How We Understand What Others Think, Believe, Feel, and Want, Pod Academy's Craig Barfoot finds out about empathy, anthropomorphism, hubris and egocentricity. One thing they discuss is how our egocentricity makes us feel far more noticeable than we are. As David Foster Wallace said, in Infinite Jest, “You will become way less concerned with what other people think of you when you realize how seldom they do.” This was confirmed in what Professor Epley describes as 'the most liberating experiment in the entire field of psychology'. Research by Kenneth Savitsky; Thomas Gilovich; Gail Berger and Victoria Medvec found that no one in a room remembered the person wearing a Barry Manilow teeshirt, whereas the wearer of the teeshirt, embarrassed to be seen in this way, thought 50% of the room would remember! Other issues covered are: do we know what it is like to be tortured? or what it is like to be poor? and how modern warfare has distanced us from death (because if we are too close it is difficult to kill someone). This is a fascinating exploration of what scientists have learned about our ability to understand the most complicated puzzle on the planet—other people—and the surprising mistakes we so routinely make.
