How Billion-Dollar Decisions Are Secretly Manipulated by Your Own Mind

Why This Book Is Considered a Masterpiece

Daniel Kahneman is a Nobel Prize–winning psychologist.
His research destroyed the myth that humans are rational decision-makers.

Thinking, Fast and Slow explains why even smart people make terrible choices — in money, business, relationships, and life.

This book is used by:

• Hedge funds
• Banks
• Governments
• Marketing agencies
• Behavioral economists

Because it reveals how the human mind actually works.

The Two Systems Running Your Brain

Kahneman proves that you do not have one brain — you have two:

System 1 – Fast Thinking

• Automatic
• Emotional
• Instinctive
• Makes quick judgments

This is why you:

• Panic during stock crashes
• Trust confident people
• Buy expensive brands

System 2 – Slow Thinking

• Logical
• Analytical
• Careful
• Energy-consuming

This is the system used for:

• Calculating investments
• Making big decisions
• Solving problems

But here’s the danger…

System 1 controls most of your life.

Why Smart People Make Dumb Financial Decisions

Kahneman shows that humans suffer from:

• Overconfidence
• Loss aversion
• Confirmation bias
• Herd mentality
• Risk misjudgment

This is why:

• Traders lose money
• Investors buy at market tops
• Entrepreneurs misjudge risk
• Consumers overpay

Your brain is wired to feel safe, not to be accurate.
