Despite yesterday's passionate argument in favour of expensive dining experiences, I must admit that when it's over and I see the bill, I do question whether it's a sensible way to spend. Imagine a $100 meal that takes two hours. Comparing alternative spending ideas by looking at their cost per hour:
Fancy meal. 2 hours of dining, at $50 / hour.
Ten cinema visits. 20 hours of viewing, at $5 / hour.
Year's membership to a golf or tennis club. 100 hours of playing, at $1 / hour.
Ten novels. 100 hours of reading, at $1 / hour
Clearly restauranting makes no financial sense at all. I'll be eating at home from now on.
