"Whether it's more valuable to you is very much subjective, though if you asked someone if they'd prefer $10 or a sandwich, most people would say the $10."

I would say it depends on whether I'm hungry or not.

Pretty much my point - and hence 'very much subjective'.

Parent was asserting a perishable item is inherently more valuable than the means to purchase same.

I was not at all asserting that, and I've had enough of your aggressive misinterpretations. I'm done talking to you.

What? You literally did say that:

> I traded it [$10] for something more valuable [a sandwich].
