145936, "Cost" and "(Intrinsic) Value" are two different things. Posted by WaxLablTabler, Mon Nov-15-10 04:42 PM
Cost seeks to accurately estimate/represent the Intrinsic Value of a thing. Because some things (such as probability and eventuality) are impossible to measure accurately, cost is never a necessarily accurate description of intrinsic value.
Put shortly, people need to think about things and what they really mean, not about money.
