Information Asymmetry: Let Your Character Stand the Test of Time

Sometimes, the best way to counteract Information Asymmetry is letting time do its job.

As I mentioned before, sometimes Information Asymmetry arises from time differentials between the receipt of information. Most people who cheat get caught sooner or later, but if you don’t cheat then you have nothing to worry about in the long term.

Often, everything comes down to trust and gut instinct anyways. The cost of detection is high or close to impossible, and even a private detective can’t track a partner 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

So let your character stand the test of time, and the market will reward you.
