That's why there's no correlation between the pay and the results, and that's why what you're defending is perverse.
- JumpCrisscross 15y agoThe point I had was things can be bought for their inherent aesthetic value, independent of status signalling. Status signalling, while a deeply rooted biological behaviour, is a primitive imitation of the former. Also, there is a correlation between pay and performance. You can't just strike out the empirical record for rhetorical convenience. It's closer tied to portion of pay in low-struck options, etc. versus cash pay but statistically significant nonetheless.
