Let’s see, I could use maybe 300 of those pills, and I don’t actually care that much that I’m overweight. (Which is why I’m overweight.) So, say… fifty cents a pill. No, wait, I’ll splurge. A buck a pill. That’s right, a whole entire dollar.
Yep, that’s right. I really don’t care, and each pill’s effect is so small I’d have to buy a cartload. I’m not invested enough to trash my finances just to make my doctor happy.
