[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll go out of my way to save 5 cents a gallon on gas.[/quote] DH, sitting on $10M in assets, drives 10 miles for Costco premium gas (more than 5 cents savings, but still).. I use this to my advantage. [/quote] I remember in my first - and only - year in BigLaw, a partner telling me how she'd driven 25 miles to save $10 on a baby carrier. I couldn't believe it. She must have made $1000 an hour. [/quote] For some people it’s about the chase and the thrill of the bargain. I see this in consulting partners and highly paid sales people - they just love to win. My time is the most valuable thing to me and I value my time at $60-80/hr depending on the task. If I can hire out a job less than that, I will. [/quote]
