Losses sting about twice as much as gains feel good, and rare risks feel bigger than they are. This chart scales both positions' income together and re-reads the distributions the way a typical human would (cumulative prospect theory, Tversky & Kahneman 1992) — a decision aid, not financial advice.

Cross-border taxes
