You’ll Want to Switch… But That’s the TrapAdded:
Would switching make you richer? In this [music] envelope puzzle, there are two envelopes in front of you. One contains twice as much money as the other. You pick one and open it.
>> [music] >> It contains $10. Now think carefully. If this $10 is the smaller amount, then switching means you double it to 20. But if this $10 [music] is the larger amount, then switching gives you only $5. So now what do you do? Switch or stay?
>> [music] >> Comment your answer. Would you switch or stay?
