Default Re: Money Study

if all ppl earn 250k then the general income in this country is 250k so prices of goods are set accordinly to the demand of those ppl to goods then it is set to 250k , while im getting 100k so i wont afford those goods.

but if they earn 25k and ill earn 50k so price of goods are related to the 25k that most earn as an income , so i will be better of with 50k

so ill choose answer 1

Ok lol...vcoderz people are special...this was the result of the study

Quote:
Surprisingly -- stunningly, in fact -- research shows that the majority of people select the first option; they would rather make twice as much as others even if that meant earning half as much as they could otherwise have. How irrational is that?
Here is another study they did with its result...comment

Quote:
A is waiting in line at a movie theater. When he gets to the ticket window, he is told that as he is the 100,000th customer of the theater, he has just won $100.

B is waiting in line at a different theater. The man in front of him wins $1,000 for being the 1-millionth customer of the theater. Mr. B wins $150.

Amazingly, most people said that they would prefer to be A. In other words, they would rather forgo $50 in order to alleviate the feeling of regret that comes with not winning the thousand bucks. Essentially, they were willing to pay $50 for regret therapy.

Hehe, yea i agree, i prefer to be A in this matter.
When you're close to something and get the second prize you will always have the regret feeling somehow not being the first.

I don't care if others were more rich than me as long as i'm living a beautifull life with enough money to cover my spendings. so i voted for the second option.

but of course it's in case if the prices remained the same so we can live properly with 100.000 $
but if the 100.000 $ doesen't cover the prices and my life requirements of course then i'll choose number 1...

but i voted 2 if we supposed that prices and life requirements between 1 and 2 are equal.
