Behavioral Finance (Coursera)

We make thousands of decisions every day. Do I cross the road now, or wait for the oncoming truck to pass? Should I eat fries or a salad for lunch? How much should I tip the cab driver?

Without these mental shortcuts, we would be paralyzed by the multitude of daily choices.
