Meir Statman, chairman of the finance department at Santa Clara University, helped develop Personalfund.
"About halfway through, I went to the house to pick up some stuff, " Statman recalled.
About two weeks later, Statman said she received a letter from that producer, Bill Nelson.
That person was Patti Tate, Sharon's sister, and Statman said the pair went on to strike up a romantic relationship.
"The evidence does suggest that the market is not rational, " says Meir Statman, a finance professor at Santa Clara University in California.

The stories within, along with how Statman fell into the Tate family legacy, are yet more fodder for those who remain interested in the tragedy, 40-plus years later.
Personalfund founder Stefan Sharkansky contacted Statman after reading his paper.
Statman spent the last five years constructing "Restless Souls" using what she said are Patti's unpublished manuscripts, along with the unpublished writings of Sharon and Patti's late parents, Doris and P.
Statman said there has already been interest in the film rights to "Restless Souls, " but she said that for now, she's staying put with the survivors' words, as they told them, on page.
Nelson said he was working on a film about the Manson murders and the Tate family, that he had the blessing of Sharon Tate's mother, Doris Tate, and asked if Statman would be interested in helping.
From there, Statman said her life was radically altered: On a filming trip, she went with Nelson to the house of a detective who had worked on the Tate case and who had mountains of police reports, photos, "everything imaginable" piled high on a dining room table.
