Late Night Studying
I actually posted the following on my online Macroeconomics class message board. When did I become so geeky?
John Palmer should like this one.
When reviewing Chapter 2, the model used extensively throughout deals with a Pizza/Robot Economy. Did anyone else actually order pizza when reviewing this chapter? I did!
However, after three slices I felt very full. The marginal benefit of enjoying the pizza was usurped by the marginal cost of feeling full (and if I would eat too much, feeling sick). In the end, my total cost was less than the total benefit and I have 2/3rds of a pizza sitting in the fridge.
Tomorrow I will review Chapter 3. Good thing there are two cans of corn in the pantry!
Lesson: People who are hungry should neither grocery shop nor study Economics.
