Nostalgia

During the 17th century, tulips were at one point one of the most expensive commodities in the world.

The reason was because we treated it like a scarce resource and humans have a hard time with the fear of missing out. As a result, the price skyrocketed. To the point where investors were betting futures on it.

We get excited about a lot of things. But most the time, it’s part of the moment. The next comes and the old doesn’t seem to have its appeal until it becomes nostalgic for a few who miss that time.
