Elyse Melling, Ch. 7, Question 6

I found the section on neuroeconomics to be very interesting. I didn't previously know that biology is being incorporated so heavily into the world of money. Economics, cognitive neuroscience, and psychology are all being incorporated into one group. I also found the part about people with brain damage being good investors to be interesting. Due to the fact that the part of the brain involved with emotion is damaged, the group of patients were able to perform with a more positive outcome than the group without brain damage. This really shows how weighing your risks and benefits comes into play when making investment decisions.
