Is it just us, or is Omicron seemingly everywhere? It's Omicrummy! (sorry) We are staying on Zoom for February, which lets us have a non-local expert speaker.
Risk
With the chances of winning so low, why would anyone play the lottery? With the chance of failing so high, why would anyone open a restaurant? Eden Blair, Professor of Entrepreneurship at Bradley University will share how 25 years of research in cognition and neuroeconomics have demonstrated that people are poor at perceiving and managing risk. Learn why our emotions matter more than we think when making financial decisions and why seemingly irrational thinking may make more sense than you thought.
The Zoom "doors" will open at 10:30, so folks can chat in breakout rooms with others before the assembly starts at 11. We will also use breakout rooms after the assembly so you can hang out with your fellow Earthlings until around 1 PM, so please feel free to stay and chat in small groups! Our speaker will also stay behind to answer your questions.
The Zoom link and some pointers are below. You won't need to RSVP with Zoom first, just use this link!

Quick suggestions for Zoom:
Use your headphones instead of the computer's/phone's speakers; it'll make hearing you easier when we break out into little chat groups.
If possible, please enable your video feed so we can see you! The speakers will then be able to see your beautiful faces and reactions, and it'll feel more like we are in person. If you have to walk away from or move your camera, please disable it until you get back. And yes, of course we want to see your cats.
You'll be muted right when you get to the meeting, but worry not, there will be smaller groups during and after the assembly that you can use to talk to your fellow Earthlings.
In the corner of the box with your face in it, you can choose to hide yourself from your view, so you won't find looking at yourself so distracting. Also, it'll make more space on your screen to see others.
You may (but don't have to) RSVP on Meetup.
We can't wait to see you all!
