Dale Carnegie rose from the unknown of a Missouri farm to international fame

Dale had to ride horseback 12 miles to attend classes. Study had to be done 39 his

needed. By the time Dale was a senior, he had won every top honor in 51 . Now

B

However wealthy we may be, we can never find enough hours in the day to do

everything we want. Economics deals with this problem through the concept of

opportunity cost, which simply refers to whether someone’s time or money could be

better spent on something else.

Every hour of our time has a value. For every hour we work at one job we could

quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film. Each of these options

has a different opportunity cost

—

namely,

what they cost us in missed opportunities.

Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will

take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium. Why not, you might reason,

watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with

friends? This

—

the alternative use of your cash and time

—

is the opportunity cost.

For economists, every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo

—

in terms of money and enjoyment

—

in order to take it up. By knowing precisely what

you are receiving and what you are missing out on, you ought to be able to make

better- informed, more reasonable decisions. Consider that most famous economic rule

of all: there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free, the time you will spend in

the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.

Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging: imagine

spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent

elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable. Yet, in a sense it’s h

uman

nature to do precisely that

—

we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions

all the time.
