Eye for a bargain...
living life king size never kinda made sense... always looking for a bargain seems to be the order with most of people I know.. Though the degrees vary, i know people doing all sorts of crazy things to save a buck here and another there... from exploiting tax laws to avoid having to pay taxes, to going to corners of the city to save money, to getting down a few blocks and walking to save the tariff of bus from going into next zone..always looking for arbitrage opportunities, I think I have seen em all.. Not to be outdone, I too decided to save money and order for Home theatre speakers from Amazon, and have a friend get them from US for me, involving a host of friends and intermediaries in the process of acquiring... so finally I might be able to successfully pull it off if I get the Polk Audio speakers I finally placed an order for... sometimes I wonder if its all worth the effort, but immediately am consoled with the thought that I derived immense satisfaction from the hunt for bargain, and see I saved such a ton of money - but i miss the costs incurred - giving up time to play another game of TT, listen to music for a year, shifting into an apartment a year earlier -- The eye for bargain seems to have a blindspot for the effort put in.. and i start thinking again about the opportunity costs...
and the whole cycle of fun and pondering over the bargain commences once again in my head...
i guess i just need more work
