Would you want in an hour long line outside McDonald’s for example if they offered a free burger? If yes, then it means you think your time is worth the cost of that burger $3 per hour.
- GoodJokes 6y ago“Successful people” is too general. I think you are talking about sociopaths.
- tacitusarc 6y agoThis is like one of those things unimaginative economists say. Maybe there is no way to pay to cut in line. Maybe it's a small town I can't just drive somewhere else to get food, and I have low blood sugar, and I know I'll get to the front of the line faster than trying to find some other place to buy food. Maybe it's test sample of a new product they have and I'm trying to compete, and the only way to try it is to wait in the long line. I'm sure there's a dozen more creative explanations for your proposed situation. Just because I'm willing to spend time on something doesn't mean I think my time is worth less than the cost of paying not to spend it.
