Episode 1003 - (UNLOCKED) Nudge Book Club

UNLOCKED from our Patreon page, it’s the “Nudge” Book Club! Interested in more Book Clubs? Want to vote on what we read next? Feeling FOMO at getting this a full year late? Wish your 2 CEs for listening to the episode were FREE??? Join us on Patreon to get all of our episodes a week early, access to these bonus episodes, plus other goodies.

Branching out into the world of behavioral economics, it's our newest Book Club covering the classic, Nobel-prize-adjacent, "Nudge" by Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein. We're joined by our Book Club Buddy, Alan, and new patron, Victoria, to explore how the economists think of human behavior and whether the principles behind choice architecture are all they've been made out to be. Plus, Rob runs down some of the additions to the recently published "Final Edition" and how it may make "Nudge" a lesser work than the previous version. All that and the best insurance buying tips!
