Default Re: Thinking of life in terms of opportunity cost.

I used to think this way myself, and I don't even make that much playing poker. But I would think this to myself when reading or watching a DVD for fun instead of playing poker. I knew I could be making something in my leisure time instead of enjoying it how I see fit.

But you know what I figured out? Happiness and freedom is worth more than whatever I will make by always applying opportunity cost. Sure, it can be a very useful tool at times, but I wouldn't give up my happiness for any amount of money.

Once I finish this SNG, I'm going to read, and I don't feel guilty about missing out on whatever ROI I'll be missing out on.
