Abstract

There is an assumption in Economics: people are rational. While, what behavioral economics emphasizes is that human behaviors are irrational. Based on the theories of behavioral economics, this paper analyzes practical cases and data, draws the conclusion that people are irrational many times in their daily lives. This paper intends to explore the elements leading to irrational consumption and investments, and provides conservative suggestions on avoiding such irrational behaviors.
