I was attracted to the world of economics and finance when I started digging into it to better understand blockchain technology. Eventually, economics became the prism through which I view the world.
This week, because of my explorative nature, I tried to compile a list of items that bring me joy, and their respective prices.
From the results in the list, one thing became obvious: after most basic needs are settled, nothing else comes even close in terms of pleasure/joy per dollar. For me personally, these “basic needs” are a single espresso and a few bananas for lunch.
That’s something to keep in mind when purchasing anything, even a small cup of coffee.
