Based on the Work of Dan Ariely
A Complete Practical Explainer
Ever wondered why you buy things you don't need, stick with bad habits, or change your mind the moment a price tag appears?
You're not alone, and you're not as random as you think.
Predictably Irrational Explainer explores the hidden forces that quietly shape everyday decisions—from the products you buy to the choices you make at work, with money, and in everyday life.
