> I can buy any meal at any restaurant I want and I never care about the price. It’s a glorious feeling. I eat whatever I want. Unfathomable

My budget for food used to be limited by money, now it’s limited by calories.

Apparently you didn't pay attention in economics class. Human wants are infinite.

Nope. I've got everything I want. It's not a lot. I'm collecting a ton of money now that I don't know what to do with.

Promoting wants is the foundation of economics however.

Why not increase your desires.

Time is limited. Doing too much detracts from what I do want to do.

I'm sure it'll wear off one day but I'm going to live it now.

I did pay attention in physics. I learned that cows are approximately spherical and live in a vacuum.

And time. Restaurants are very time consuming.

Not really. Include food prep and clean up in your equation.

You can order takeout.

Depends on when you visit them. If you go at peak, the wait times get pretty bad. If you go not too long before the peak, things usually go much faster as it may be fully staffed already. If you go between peaks, things get slow because the kitchen may not be fully staffed or is also working on prepping for the rush.
