I think most people are way more influenced by nudges than they would believe or expect, as anyone who is successful in sales well knows.

    True. I am doubting, curmudgeonly, initially distrustful, and I see a scam coming from a mile away. I have a rule that I don't buy anything that is advertised at me unless I looked it up first. Even so, they've got me a few times here and there. Anyone who is completely unnudgeable is in their own world :D
