Bevause person a treats themselves once a day and person b treats themselves once a week, it's still the same concept. Yiure just changing timespans.
I don't have a formula, I just don't make it a habit. I know you are not the Buddha so your desires are unlimited, if you wanted you could fulfill even more of them by just being more efficient. It is just a mathematical reality.
Why would you ever want to minimize your utility. -

Originally posted by mmQ Everything could always be claimed to be as inefficient spending though. Oh, you like coffee, so you should buy the press and make your own and then you'll save money. Sure.
So then what else? Should a person never go out to eat? Its eternally cheaper to just make your own bread and drink water from a lake or something. You could be spending your money better by not ever spending it on anything.
Nobody said "never".
Yeah if you said you spent $50 every day on restaurant food on a $2K income, I'd think you were either really busy (and probably it is an investment into the time you spend working instead), or really stupid and inept at cooking.
Nobody is talking about occasional luxury spending, that's fine. But yeah going out to pay a 5000% markup for basic shit you can make at home EVERY SINGLE DAY is stupid. It's ridiculous. It's worthy of ridicule. -
2020-07-23 at 2:55 PM UTC in I got mask shamed twice todayI even go get coffee at a coffee shop myself sometimes. It's cool. Specially when I want a more complicated sugary drink, I like having someone who knows what they're doing make it for me and sit and enjoy the vibe. But that's just occasionally, as a treat.
That's just what it is, you are minimizing the utility you derive from your spending rather than maximizing it, because you have bought into gay consoomerism. -
2020-07-23 at 2:49 PM UTC in I got mask shamed twice todayBoth of you are attacking straw men. It's not THAT you enjoy getting stuff by spending but that you spend inefficiently.
As an example: you are a regular coffee drinker, that means it would actually make sense for you to spend like 30 bucks on an Aeropress and learn how to make it yourself and spend maybe $50/mo on ingredients tops, plus it would probably be tastier and you would learn a skill.
The only difference being that you don't get to go to Starcucks and finance their "atmo". -

stupid indian who insist hes a paki.
Then it's irrelevant because he was never talking about the existence of the hole but why it was spurting out rather than leaking, which is made clear by the question he was answering in the first place.
Illiterate gook: doesn't know Chinese and for damn sure can't read English. -

Yeah they are, it is literally half the operating principle of a lighter. You hold down the trigger and it is supposed to shoot a pressurised stream of gas, that is ignited with the spark. The issue was just an unexpected hole. -

Originally posted by -SpectraL One of my buddies had some circuits on his motherboard fried by the unusual heat, power to the PC just kept turning off by itself randomly.

Now he's running at 3.2 Ghz on a dual CPU with 192mb of video memory and a 40 gig hard drive on WinXP.
You don't have friends. -
