Abstract
⺠The effect of house money on the risk-taking behavior is investigated. ⺠The relationship between prior gains and the change in risk taking is examined. ⺠When gains are more substantial, individuals tend to take greater risk. ⺠The propensity for risk taking following gains diminishes with time. ⺠The salient reference point for gains is the highest price attained previously.
