Latest / Behavioral Economics with Fexingo: Decision Making, Bias, and How People Really Spend
How The Decoy Effect Shapes Your Financial Choices
We examine the decoy effect, a subtle manipulation where adding an inferior option changes your preference between two others. Using real-world examples from subscription services and investment funds, we show how this bias skews spending and portfolio decisions. Lucas and Luna break down why the middle option often wins and how to recognize when you are being nudged toward a choice that benefits the seller, not you.
