Behavioral economics suggests • individual decision making isn’t • rational. What this means for you! • a. when it comes to complex choices • such as whether to save and when to retire, • people’s decisions are often influenced by • social norms and the presentation of • their options—in addition to the “substance” • of the options themselves • 1. example: automatic defaults
