I like the way you say that. I was going to say that Ann can push to split the pizza 7-5 if it is OK that she is being an a@#hole. If not, she should split it 6

I think the author makes a good point in the article, but he should have at least mentioned future ramifications.
- SamBam 5y agoThe lack of context in the original deal is such that it might make sense to call Alice an "a@#hole" for not agreeing to 50/50, but I don't thinks that's the case in any real-world example of this. Why was Alice being offered 4 and Bob 2? Perhaps Alice had done twice as much work as Bob to get the original pizza. Perhaps she had invested twice as many resources. In that case, why would the "fair" deal be one in which Bob is suddenly getting the same compensation as Alice? The solution outlined in the article makes more sense.

- Gare 5y agoThere are many scenarios where joining forces results in higher returns. If my investment is larger, how should we split the profit?
