I think we are all guilty of this to a degree. We all measure risk/reward differently when the risk is perceived to be on our side and the reward on the other side.

The issue with perception is universal. We all feel these things.

How we act though? That's a choice. We can choose to read statistics and let our 'slow thinking' brain take over. But it has to be a choice and that lies with each of us.
