sunk costs, blah blah
opportunity costs- a bunch of poker money
in the same situation i stayed because i wouldnt want to go back to school in the future
..one more semester

i dont think that applies as a sunk cost. and if it does, surely getting an NYU-Stern degree is worth $40k. as for opportunity cost, I'd guess Evan (junior at Stern) will make more money than him over the next 10 years if he gets a job and witelime drops out. even if he doesnt get a job, its nice to ahve a backup plan in case poker doesnt work out
