    Lightbulb Sunk Cost Fallacy

    For those of you spending on awakening gems, lockeds, or what-not:

    Sunk Cost Fallacy

    Definition: The idea that a company or organization is more likely to continue with a project if they have already invested a lot of money, time, or effort in it, even when continuing is not the best thing to do.
    Your decisions are tainted by the emotional investments you accumulate, and the more you invest in something the harder it becomes to abandon it.


    PS: Don't get me wrong. If you want to spend all your gold on awakenings or lockeds, I thank you for it, because you keep the game moving forward by helping STS have a profit.
    However, since lately I have seen a lot of posts concerning spending a lot on gambling, and then having no return, this is just some advice if you want to avoid the same situation.

    Not a drama thread, just my two cents.
