Isaac Newton is remembered as one of the greatest scientific minds in history — the man who explained gravity, motion, and the laws that govern the universe. But beyond the laboratory, even Newton was not immune to human emotion… especially when it came to money.
In the early 1700s, Newton invested heavily in the South Sea Company — a company that promised enormous profits and triggered one of the first major stock market bubbles in history. At first, Newton made a smart move by selling his shares early for a profit. But as the stock price kept skyrocketing and everyone around him seemed to be getting rich, he jumped back in near the top.
What happened next became a timeless lesson in financial psychology.
When the bubble finally burst, Newton reportedly lost around £20,000 — an enormous fortune at the time. His famous reflection still echoes through financial history:
“I can calculate the motions of the heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.”
