“In the long run, we are all dead.”


So stated by a bi-sexual who had no kids...he just didn’t give a damn about the long-term future, and his economic theory reflects that short-sighted attitude.

Well, it’s a valid point about economic valuation: value declines over time because of opportunity cost if nothing else. Everything we value has a time frame within which we measure it, and when the time frame is long enough, the current perceived value falls to zero.
