Abstract: | Much research shows that when it comes to preferences over sequences of money, such as a monthly paycheck, people do not always maximize present value. To unearth the reasons for sequence preferences the authors conducted a verbal-protocol analysis of choices between money sequences, including lifetime and one-year earnings and one-year lottery winnings, as well as lifetime health sequences. |
