Other People's Budgets


 "Harvard psychologist Max Bazerman once showed that when analyzing other people's home renovation plans, most people estimate the project will run between 25% to 50% over budget. But when it comes to their own projects, people estimate that renovations will be completed on time and on budget. Oh the eventual disappointment." - Morgan Housel The Psychology of Money

How very true of almost all budget projections. Especially government ones!
