    sigh… your applying “value”(monetary/finance), to “value”(possessive)…

    is it saving me financially? no, ofcourse not. im not a business, I’m not selling the servings I’m making, and buying them back from myself.

    however, energy is finite. let me introduce you to spoon theory. the point that the trappings of mental exhaustion from physical and mental strain have a cost on your health and well being.

    that cost /becomes/ monetary later when you lose the ability to maintain the money earning opportunities or expierence injury as a result of overwork. very real things that occur every single day.

    point being, that Friday night beer and slice your m8 gets delivered from door dash is saving him from having a mental breakdown or being exhausted and burning himself on the stove. these are possessive costs that translate to literal finite costs later.

    I return to my point I seem to be making alot lately, do people think “preventive care” is a scare word?
