Game theory was first introduced to me my freshman year when I took a leadership class with Dr.Harwell. We played a game where the object of the game was to optimize how much money you had. In order to so that, the logical way would be to donate everything so that it could be multiplied and then given back. The game required trust and many people would break this trust. Playing the game made me very skeptical of others because it\u2019s so easy to betray someone. I think this is true in everyday life. A lot of the theories can be applicable to everyday life but require trust. Another one that I found interesting was the Prisoner\u2019s Dilemma. This one requires trust as well. I think trust can be a very tricky thing because I personally feel as though humans are naturally greedy. If we are naturally this way, then it would be hard to trust someone or to stay honest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
