Decisions Are The Value What you don't see, and what takes all the time, are all the decisions that were made in creating this system. Big decisions. Little decisions. Even decisions about which decisions to actually make, which to delegate to the user or someone else, and which to safely ignore. All of these add up, and contribute to the cost of the process to produce the desired result. What looks so simple and easy on the surface, belies the many, many decisions that had to be made, and actions that had to be taken, to create that simplicity. Decisions take time. You usually have to research the available options, gain some education and understanding as to how they all compare to each other and how each option relates to both the immediate issue under consideration as well as the larger goal towards which one is striving to achieve. You pick one and hope it works out well. Feedback is not usually immediate, so you don't really know whether you have made the right choices until much later. If things work, great, but were all the decisions correct, or did you just get lucky with some? Errors are tricky to spot and avoid yet easy to make. Errors of omission, leaving something out that needs to be in. Errors of commission, putting the wrong thing in that needs to be out or different. Syntax Errors, putting things in the wrong order or using the wrong grammar to describe what you want done. And the ever present Law of Unintended Consequences, where something you do or don't do now has effects in the future that go against the larger results you were trying to achieve. Fixing, or even preventing these errors require a lot more decisions to be made. Rabbit trails leading to dead ends requiring you to back up to a point where you can try the other path. But which point do you back up to? How many levels deep, how many decision points back do you need to go? How do you know? Even these are decisions that need to be made. Each decision takes time, and comes at a cost of energy and resources.

I've been reading some romance novels recently. (You know, the ones where the heroine has kids with a billionaire.) And I noticed something interesting. The authors, to the best of my knowledge, are not billionaires themselves, but the way they portray the economic activities of the fictional billionaires that they write about mirror the economic activities of real life billionaires. Especially in how they make and spend their money. The billionaires make money by either: Solving big problems for people for which they get paid high fees (Note: that doesn't mean that the billionaire has to do the work of solving the problem themselves, often they just connect the person with the problem to someone with the solution and collect a fee as the middleman.) Creating businesses around the solutions Selling all or part of a business to others Collecting capital gains - buying low and selling high Buying other businesses Buying assets and turning them into businesses They spend their money lavishly looking to save time, please someone important to them, or achieve a particular result. Price is not really a consideration, and they will often “overpay” for something if they end up getting what they want. The billionaires are very clear about their goals and will do just about anything to achieve them. Thus, it isn't overpaying if they can simply use money to get what they want faster and easier. They figure that when they need more money, they will just go create it using one or more of the methods listed above. Sure, they could try to negotiate and get things cheaper, but usually they don't waste their time on that. They would rather just pay what is required, obtain the item, use it to reach their goal, and move on. They buy their way into special treatment, positions of power and influence, lucrative relationships, and out of whatever predicament they can. Sometimes their money isn't enough and they have to use other means to get what they want. Hence the usefulness of buying that power and influence and those connections.
