☆ Elon Musk's 'gamification' of government spending taps into our natural competitive instinct
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-14 | by ( ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +9 min

AdvertisementIt was perhaps inevitable that Elon Musk — a tech titan and a prolific gamer — would try to turn government spending into a game. It's a natural move for Musk, who came up in the tech world in the early 2000s, as "gamification" took hold. "That's that kind of logic that you end up having if you're not really cautious about how it's designed." AdvertisementFor the government, that might hinge on what counts as waste and whether Musk's leaderboard can get people to agree. Otherwise, Hon said gamification might have short-term benefits but backfire in the long term as important, less-tangible factors are crowded out by overemphasizing one metric.

☆ Elon Musk's promise of an 'epic' leaderboard of 'dumb' government spending reveals his marketing savvy
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-13 | by ( Geoff Weiss | Grace Eliza Goodwin | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +7 min

Elon Musk says a leaderboard of "dumb" government spending will expose waste — and he wants your two cents. The Tesla CEO said this week that he planned to post a public "leaderboard for the most insanely dumb spending of your tax dollars." While the effectiveness of Musk's leaderboard remains to be seen, experts told Business Insider it showed his marketing savvy — even if it could also encourage "gotcha" moments that need more context. Especially in a dry realm such as government spending, Musk's plans are bound to grab eyeballs — and perhaps make people feel more invested in the outcome. She said there was some precedent for Musk's leaderboard, noting that former Sen. William Proxmire, a Democrat from Wisconsin, issued the "Golden Fleece Award" for wasteful spending throughout the 1970s and '80s via monthly press releases.

But investing in the stock market should be boring rather than exciting. While some hands-on traders approach betting on the stock market similarly to betting money on sports, the truth is they should have very little in common. Compared to sports betting, investing in the stock market should be "non-adrenaline focused," Egan said. While an explosion of confetti might make trading stocks more entertaining, investing in the stock market should be boring. Historically, the average stock market return is about 10% each year.

I spent some time alone after things ended, but by the end of 2012, I was ready to re-embrace online dating. Within a few years, my fellow millennials and I were reportedly spending 10 hours a week on dating apps. "Dating apps are designed to be a miserable experience," Stephanie Rodgers, the founder of the forthcoming dating app Verb, said. Increasingly, it feels like dating apps make things more monotonous and cumbersome to incentivize us to pay for upgrades. And while dating apps' cost in terms of harassment, threats, and violence is paid disproportionately by women, its financial cost is disproportionately paid by men.

Nvidia 's wild price swings are having a strong hold on the entire market, and "insane" options trading in the chipmaker could be the culprit. While some believe Wednesday's advance was driven by CEO Jensen Huang's bullish comments about artificial intelligence , others think the action was mostly triggered by the explosion of short-term options trading activity in Nvidia. "I don't think yesterday's +8% ripper in the stock was fundamentally driven," Wells Fargo trading desk said in a note to clients Thursday. The desk pointed to a host of Nvidia call options that are set to expire on Friday, and which were the most actively-traded contracts Wednesday.

The no-spend rulesThe "no-spend" challenge can last for a week, a month or even a full year. On its face, "the no-buy challenge is as much pragmatic as it is symbolic," according to Gregory Stoller, a professor at Boston University's Questrom School of Business. "The potential complication with the no-buy challenge is to what extent people are willing to honor their commitment," Stoller said. Rather than hop on the latest extreme fad, "it comes back to setting a budget and setting expectations," Rossman said.

The result is an acceleration of Indian savings away from gold and real estate into financial products. However, it is also leading to what Ashish Gupta, chief investment officer at Axis Bank’s mutual fund, dubs “the gamification of Indian equities”. A frenzy for index options has driven up volume in the derivatives market to the tune of $4.3 trillion a day. Retail traders made up a higher share of equity derivatives turnover than their institutional counterparts on the National Stock Exchange between 2017 and 2021. Whatever the fix, it’s a reminder that India’s digital leapfrog which other developing countries are urgently trying to replicate has a dark side too.
