Are we becoming irrational ?

While looking at our decision making, I kept finding that most of us were misjudging probability of events or assuming impossibility of events. Even though we had been proven wrong time and time again.


I wondered if this was a new phenomenon. And found that it's not. It's always been there, and it was I who only now realized that it seems to be part of a human folly.


Charles Munger, Vice-Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway gave this speech on Human Misjudgement in 1995.
