When the Smartest Man in History Lost His Fortune

Picture Isaac Newton-the man who decoded gravity, invented calculus, and unlocked the mathematical secrets of the universe-sobbing over a financial catastrophe. In 1720, after wisely selling his South Sea Company shares for a handsome profit, Newton watched prices soar even higher. Unable to bear the agony of missing out, he dove back in at double his selling price, just weeks before the bubble exploded. His losses exceeded 20,000-roughly $20 million today. "I can calculate the motions of the heavenly bodies," he later confessed, "but not the madness of the people." If genius couldn't save Newton from financial ruin, what chance do the rest of us have? The uncomfortable truth is that intelligence offers zero protection against the psychological forces that hijack our investment decisions. Fear, greed, overconfidence, and the irresistible pull of the crowd transform even brilliant minds into reckless gamblers. Understanding these forces-and recognizing them in ourselves-becomes the difference between building wealth and watching it vanish.
