Yeah, the cheapest CBD I could find on Google was ~$30/g (pre- tax, shipping, etc). Good luck convincing people to spend $600/mo on their sleep!
(I can already hear the HNers coming out of the woodwork to attest to their willingness to do so, how sleep is 1/3rd of your life and so if you're spending < 1/3rd of your income on it you're actually getting a great deal, and how it would actually save them tons of money to sleep a bit better and with a little less anxiety...yada yada..
but the vast majority of people can't do that)
- cneurotic 7y agoHa, your parenthetical definitely anticipated me. If I could RELIABLY score a solid 8 hours every single night, I would call $600/mo steep — but worth it.
- JimboOmega 7y agoAlso says something about the general cross section of HN users that $600/mo is "steep but worth it". There a lot of people for whom $600/mo is wildly unaffordable for anything, even essential medical care. (FWIW, I'm with you, if I could wake up well rested every morning, I'd drop $1K/mo or more without a second thought)
- superkuh 7y agoWhen you're taking 600mg of CBD it's likely there's at least a handful of mg of THC 'contamination'; enough to be an active dose. Part of the reason it's expensive is separating the two effectively.
- bob_theslob646 7y agoI bet you people would use it if it was their last resort to getting a good rest.
- pizza 7y agoNo doubt. Insomnia is merciless. It's just that, for a lot of people, this approach will be out of their reach. Not that that means we shouldn't try to make it affordable, of course.
