MRT
Rowling conceived harry potter on a train, and i just gave birth to a simple lil equation of mine on the MRT.Lets see, how do we judge the value of something you buy? Why not break it down into this.
Lets say for a bag which costs $36.50, we shall reduce its value into how long do you think you would use it for. Simply divide the cost by that. ( standard unit being days? yea)
1 year maybe? so that gives rise to the fact that the bag simply costs 10 cents a day. Hmmmmm, lets set the 'Bags' benchmark value for money rate to be 15 cents a day. So.... anything more than 15 cents a day would cross into the not value for money range? Not that wise to get something within that range.
Therefore............for those looking to get a LV, Burberry, (any high end brand) bag. Go smack yourself in the head before getting it cos i just had my maiden trip into the LV shop out of curiosity and a simple bag costs $3400.
Go figure.
Of course different value for money rates(indices) should be applied to different products( cars, houses, etc) and there will be some kind of diminishing effect on the rate to the left and right of the dividing border between value for and not value for money, durability, rarity and various other factors.
For foodstuffs, the standard unit of time should probably be measured in terms of mins.
To all those who bothered to read this and understood, ok good. To those who dont....errr im just trying to frame this sudden thought out using my not so very good english.
