When making financial decisions, it is important to recognize our tendency to evaluate them within the context in which they are presented. This often leads to decisions being based on our perception of risk and return rather than solely considering the actual risk and return involved. A common example of this is how we categorize our money, assigning it to specific purposes instead of recognizing its fungibility. However, a more effective approach is to practice frame independence, where our behavior is not influenced by how the decision is framed. This involves being aware of behavioral factors such as loss aversion, hedonic editing, loss of self-control, regret, and money illusion. By being mindful of these tendencies, we can make more informed and rational financial decisions.
