You’re afraid to lose…so you end up losing more.

That’s loss aversion, and it’s sneaky.

Sticking with a bad bank, card, or habit often costs more than switching.

Reframe the risk.

The real cost of not outsourcing isn’t money—it’s missed revenue.

When your best people are buried in admin, growth, client care, and resale suffer quietly.

Outsourcing isn’t cost cutting. It’s strategic.

How to Calculate Opportunity Cost of Innovation – Kromatic Blog When calculating the costs of your innovation program, don’t forget to include opportunity costs -- the money you’re not making by doing something else.

Innovation isn’t free — the real cost is what you don’t build when you choose one path over another. Understanding opportunity cost helps you choose where learning matters most.

Capitalism? Contemporary Thought

A new blog dissecting the essence of the political economy we call capitalism which I do find to be arbitrage. Arbitrage depends on functioning markets so perhaps we should call it marketism and trace its manifestations to the dawn of human history.

That $3,000 bank bonus?

You might be giving up $2,500 in interest to get it.

What’s the opportunity cost?

Largely overlooked in the theoretical and empirical literature on the crime decline is a long tradition of research in criminology and urban sociology that considers how violence is regulated through informal sources of social control arising from residents and organizations internal to communities. In this article, we incorporate the “systemic” model of community life into debates on the U.S. crime drop, and we focus on the role that local nonprofit organizations played in the national decline of violence from the 1990s to the 2010s. Using longitudinal data and a strategy to account for the endogeneity of nonprofit formation, we estimate the causal effect on violent crime of nonprofits focused on reducing violence and building stronger communities. Drawing on a panel of 264 cities spanning more than 20 years, we estimate that every 10 additional organizations focusing on crime and community life in a city with 100,000 residents leads to a 9 percent reduction in the murder rate, a 6 percent reduction in the violent crime rate, and a 4 percent reduction in the property crime rate.

Hey @kasie.bsky.social

Hiring more police would deter crime in particular places at particular times, but they don't inherently "solve" crime

In addition, other investments would be more impactful
