Funny Cuntonomics

Things have different values i.e. Static value, sentimental value, collection value, monetary value and so on. The only value any given item has that really matters is how much someone else is willing to pay for it.
That's partly true, but value isn't always transactional. A family photo might be worthless to a buyer, but priceless to the owner.

in 10,000,000 years that seemingly worthless photo will be bought at auction by a sentient giant cockroach that inherited the earth after humans have perished
 
Water is free, it falls from the sky. The water companies like Poland Spring have not suffered in the least despite this fact. They're worth billions and all they do is take water from the earth and put it in containers, they're essentially just middlemen.
Is the cost justified?
 
Is the cost justified?
Is the cost justified? A question that can be applied to many many things. We go to work so we can be paid in money so we can buy water, so we can buy clothes, so we can buy a house -- because we don't have time to collect our own water, make our own clothes, or build our own house. But -- if we didn't waste all our time going to work (in say - an office), traditionally we would have been more than capable of collecting our own water, making our own clothes, and building our own houses, as these endeavors would be our jobs. So, the question of "is the cost justified?" really comes down to how we prefer to live our lives. If we prefer convenience at the cost of our time and freedom (if there truly is such a thing), then yes, it is well worth it. But if we enjoy living by forgoing convenience and embracing struggle, then purchasing water is indeed a waste.

Yes, that's right. But either way, it has a cost—you'll pay with money or with your time (also extra energy (money) spent for collection and purification, e.g. motor pumps, filters, etc).
