Aspen,Colorado is a perfect study of high time preference vs low time preference. The “elite” people who come here on private jets, Walking around with beautiful women, Buying luxury bags and making sure they are the center of attention, All are low time preference people. They are the envy of the working class that lives a regular life, Often driving in for hours to work in the most expensive town with the most inflated property values just to get a piece of the pie. You would think these “elite” would be tasteful and polite, That their position would humble them, That they would appreciate the struggle of these working people. But it actually has the opposite effect. The women only want to manipulate your emotions, To make you think you have a chance of being like them, Or that you would be important to them and they would change your life. The truth of the matter is they are looking for your attention to bolster their own ego. FIAT survives on the envy and jealousy between the two classes. The wealthy need the admiration of the working class to maintain their position, And the working class needs the often belittling or outright insulting compliment through tips or business to survive. The lesson: Live modestly, Save your value instead of trying to impress people to whom you are disposable, And seek quality, Take the time to appreciate the quality that the “elite” use to insight this jealousy, And know you are ahead of anyone in debt.
I went to middle school in Basalt many aeons ago.
Just further confirmation that corporate college girls are just prostitutes in training.
