Dan Ariely

I don't know Dan Ariely personally, but the way he always talks about his family - wife and kids, is admirable.

It tends to be that good psychologist tend to be very good parents. I don't mean the ones who have graduated as psychologists, but the ones who understand human behavior - and also the ones who eager to find out by experimenting, trying out new solutions, never growing up.

* Think about your best teacher from schooldays - probably very good psychologist *

I don't know Dan personally, but he seems exactly the person I described in the previous paragraph. And this kind of people never become old or boring!

Dan does a lot of experiments.

Experimenting, moving your limits and keep being positive can only do good both to your body and your mind.

Of course only if you want to live happily.

Dan is not afraid to play.

I bet this bee-costume-thing is yet another experiment, but how fun it could have been. Playing is all about fun and if you can do it as your job - hell yeah!

His research is often so amusing that sometimes you just want to try these things on your own.

All in all Dan is just another cool geek. Geeks are cool (at least for another geeks). And I, as a geek, think he is cool. Period.

Although Dan don't know me and I probably never meet him. But he is one of the coolest persons out there.
