The Wealth Effect

Planning Bias | Pocket Byte #56

July 16, 2026·16 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Let's talk about the planning fallacy, a deeply hardwired cognitive blind spot that forces everyone from independent creators to multinational corporations to chronically underestimate the time, money, and effort required to hit a goal. We trace the origins of this temporal blindness back to Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky's foundational research, exploring how our brains trap us in the inside view while completely ignoring historical reality.
