At a cocktail party, Mr. Zhang took a thousand dollar bills from the pocket, announced to all the guests: he wants to give this thousand dollar bill to the highest price friend, everyone bids each other, 50 yuan, no one Rapid increase. As long as the bid, only the price of Mr. Zhang can get this thousand dollar bills, but the second high, although I can't get thousands of banknotes, I still need to pay the price of him to Mr. Zhang.
This is another auction of the money to buy money, and immediately attract everyone's interest. At the beginning, '100 yuan', '150 yuan', '200 yuan' compensation can come up on the other, and when the price code is raised to '500 yuan', the step is eased, only three, four Bidding. Finally, only the Mr. Wang and Mr. Lin have not held it.
When Mr. Wang shouked out of '950 yuan', Mr. Zhang played a thousand dollar bills in his hand, looked at Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, seemed to have a holiday: '1050 yuan! 'This time I got a small hairdress in the venue. Mr. Zhang, I was proud to look at Mr. Wang, waiting for him to increase the price or quit, Mr. Wang bite his teeth: '2050 yuan! The 'crowd has a bigger championship, Mr. Lin puts a hand, drinking a cocktail, indicating that I exited this' crazy auction', everyone is relieved.
As a result, Mr. Wang pays '2050 yuan', bought the '1000 yuan' banknote, and Mr. Lin is white to pay the '1050 yuan'. The two 'sized autumn colors', the '1050 yuan' of each loss is included in Mr. Zhang's purse.
Three characteristics of traps
This game is invented by the economist of Yale University, people invented, people who want to auction money almost tried to not be uncomfortable from this auction. It is a specific and micro 'Life Trap', and Mr. Lin and Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang are in this' trap 'in this' trap. Can't extricate, and finally pay the cost of pain.
Since ancient times, human beings are the 'traps set by killing animals, usually there are three characteristics:
1. There is a significant bait.
2. The path to the bait is unidirectional, which can not be available.
3. The more you want to break free, you will get the deeper.
The size 'trap' on life trap is similar to this.
Social psychologist Tieg (TEGER) has analyzed the people participating in the 'Qian Du Darket Auction Game'. It has found that people who fall into the 'trap' usually have two motives. One is economical, one is interpersonal Relationship.
Economic motivations include desire to win the thousands of banknotes, want to win back to his losses, want to avoid more losses; interpersonal motives include desire to save face, prove that they are the best players and punish opponents. A thousand banknotes are an obvious bait. At the beginning, everyone wants to win it in a cheap and easy way. I hope that the price you have made is the final price. Everyone thinks so, I will continue to bid each other.
When a period of time, it is quite high, and the two people who have not bids find themselves into a trap, but they can't retreat, they have invested quite a lot, only increase investment, breaking away.
When the bid is equal to 'bonus', the competitor began to feel anxious, uneasy, and found himself? 薮 薮 聿 聿 骸 骸?
When bidding high prize, no matter how hard itself is, it is' losses' ', but in order to save the face or punish each other, he does not hesitate to raise the price again, so that the' opponent is even more heavy. '. Life has a trap everywhere
In daily life, the competition on the shopping mall, small to waiting for the bus, there are 'traps' waiting for you.
For example, bus is usually 15 minutes. When you spend more than ten minutes, you will start to be irritated, but usually you will continue to wait, wait until more than 15 minutes bus, you can't come, you can't spend In addition, I also started 'regretting' - you should walk or sit on the taxi at 15 minutes. But usually you will continue to wait, because you have already investment so much time ', you are not willing to change the taxi now, the more you go, you can't extricate it, until the bus is late, your psychological dilemma Get freeze.
But life has a lot of 'target', is not like a bus, 'must come to', and investment is not your 'personal time'. How to avoid sex into traps
On life, how to avoid rabbits into this kind of 'trap', is also a small understanding, the proposal of J.E.Rubin is:
1. Establish your investment and pre-agreement: How much does it cost, such as investment? 2. The limit is established, it is necessary to persist: such as invitation, self-agreement 'once refused to give up', can not change to 'five times there are three rejections to give up. '
3. I have to set my mind, don't have to see others: It turns out that two strangers are waiting for bus, 'I'm willing' opportunities is greatly reduced, because 'others are waiting! '
4. Remind yourself to continue the cost of investment.
5. Maintain alert.
All these methods may all know, but 'knowing is difficult to go, once the trap of life, is not too easy tooth.
