Simple Economics

[Ikerous]

Okay.. lets say theres this thing.. that you reallly like... and it costs fifty bucks
But it can only last a certain amount of time
And the quicker its gone, the better it is all along
And the longer you have it, the crappier it is all along

How long would you keep it? I kept mine for like.. 2 days.. thats not real long.. how long do you think i should keep it?
(And i don't work)

Minimum time would be like a day.. and max would be like.. a month..

I wouldn't buy it.

I'd modify Half-Life 2.

Damn you, lazy self, damn you!

::scared now:: wtf man o.o

How'd you do that?

 

[TheSomeone]

I'd disregard your rules, keep it for a second in which I would get a MASSIVE orgasm.

Good times.

18 days.

50/30 = 1.6...
1.6... X 18 = 28.8 which is approximately equal to 30. (when using days as a unit)

so you mean that in 18 days the worth of it will be used up?

 

[bliink]

No.. in 30 days ALL the worth will be used up (according to ikerous) in 18 days, you're closest to a breakeven point based on how much it cost and the retained value after depreciation... I think.

I think Bliink is trying to say you get the most out of it if you pick 18 days.

Depends on what exactly it is. Is it white rhino or purple haze or somewhere in between.

Here's how I see it:

Its a tradeoff

I presume it is really expensive ice cream were talking about here?

Well, i would pick a weekend where i am doing absolutely nothing and could devote all my attention to this thing, then blow it all in the 2 days.

Spending it over 18 days is just stupid as then you lose the whole enjoyment factor by the sheer fact that yoku know you're rationing the fun. Fun isn't a mathematic equation Bliink.

Who cares if the quality is crap if you'll get maximum profit?

Poor bliink, moderator bots can't experience emotions.
