The Economy of Attractiveness
b'
Often we hear that beauty comes from within, but it turns out
the way you look can affect how other people react to you, for
better and for worse.
Fordham Conversations Host Chris Williams talks with the author of Beauty Pays: Why Attractive People Are More Successful. Daniel Hamermesh dissects how attractive people fare better economically.
Then, Fordham professors Laura Gonzalez and Yuliya Komarova
talk about their research with online social lending and why
being more attractive could hurt when it comes to securing a
loan.
