What is the current relative humidity?

Any recommendations for walking pads?

$8 in 1993 would be nearly $19 now. A man ahead of his time

Esther's Kitchen is fucking delicious. Don't skip the bread and spreads.

Coming around to Ossoff/AOC instead of the other way around

But he made minimum wage gambling full time! How could the numbers lie

Curious how answers change if it's Costco instead of Amazon in the hypothetical scenario.

She sounds like a grade school teacher with small skeletons in her basement

The Olympics had basically this policy more than two decades ago. These idiots knowledge of the issue comes solely from that one South Park episode. www.olympics.com/ioc/news/ioc... (I probably learned this from Parker)

People that owe $40k to the mob should take the 50k

Look at the y axis, it goes from 0 to 5, not 0 to 20! I swear a little bit of econ knowledge is far worse than none.

It is specified to be a 50% chance of winning in the statement. Do they not teach word problems in school anymore?

I mean, sure but the concept has lost all usefulness at this point.

By this logic, "I enjoy gambling so much that I'd flip a coin for $1million instead of taking a $950k guarantee" is also not irrational. Literally anything in economics can be justified if you get to assume a one-off utility function. Doing that is not a useful way to think about the world.

$250k for young-ish people is probably enough to no longer need to save for retirement, which frees up lots of cash flow and mental load. So $250k is tempting, $300k would be hard to pass up, and $350k would probably get a yes from me.

$2million gives you $80k ish a year for life (increasing with inflation) which is quit-my-job-right-now money. So I'd say 25% since a higher payout wouldn't change big life decisions that much.

What issues do you have that 50k would solve most of, but 1,000k wouldn't completely solve?

Will you just don't understand how many Americans have 5 figure debts to the mob!

The utility function needed to make the two options is that of someone on the brink of starvation

If half them they turn into mini bowls filled with cheese!
