Stuart Hain says, in your discussion with Nate Silver, there was a mention of a 50-50 risk to lose everything or have two times plus epsilon framed in terms of utility. Viscerally, I would not risk everything for two times plus epsilon on a 50-50 bet, even though the odds say I should. This made me think that utility may not scale linearly. Any thoughts on this?
