"Playing the Averages Ignores Risk"

Captions available

The idea

Averaging money ignores risk; averaging utilities never did — caution is packed into the curve before the average is taken.

In practice

The renter who takes a sure 30 over a spin averaging 32.5 is averaging utilities on a bent curve, not defying arithmetic.

Where people slip

Audit analyses that quietly substitute dollars for utility — they congratulate reckless options for higher averages.
