Answer to Question #246065 in Microeconomics for Kia

Question

a) Bruce had a rare encounter with the Almighty. The Almighty offered him 3 wishes of his preference. Bruce very shrewdly chose these 3 things in that order — lots of wealth, a popular life and never have to work again. The Almighty happily granted his three wishes to Bruce. Few weeks down the line, with the spread of coronavirus, Bruce found him to be affected by it. He has gone extremely pale and week, has lost his smell, has lost his taste, can barely walk by himself. Not happy with what he has been going through, he started blaming the Almighty for all this. Do you think that Bruce was acting as a rational being? Why or why not, explain your answer.
