"Value" is just the price someone is willing to pay for something, it doesn't have to be tangible. Supply & demand, nothing more. Look at art.

- pbhjpbhj 8y agoNo, value is much more nuanced. Example, people can value something very highly but not have funds to buy it, someone who can afford the price easily can value something as being of little worth, but due to their wealth they can afford it. You appear to be confusing price, ability to pay, and value. Do look at art. You can buy a hugely influential piece of art and not value it at all, you buy it as an investment but don't care about its innate qualities, its influence on the art world (directly, only indirectly by the price that confers) or it's cultural worth.
