Commitment & loss

"You've already invested"

How it may influence

Money already spent can make it feel wasteful to stop, even when continuing costs more.

Evidence to check

  • Looking only at future cost and future benefit, is it still worth it?

Useful step

Decide as if you were starting today.

When this is reasonable

Finishing something useful you started can be the right call.

Tamil Nadu examples (illustrative)

  • Online sale: "No, I'll pay full price" as the only way to close a pop-up.
  • Course call: "pay ₹2,000 to lock your seat" before you have the full terms.
  • Showroom: a free demo, then a feeling that you should buy.
