Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like everything today — both the tangible objects we buy and the intangible services to which we subscribe — is evaluated in terms of initial cost and eventual return. We evaluate how valuable something is to us. Cars are usually considered a poor, yet necessary investment because the moment you drive that brand new 2016 off the lot, its value depreciates. With every mile logged in the odometer, that car is worth less and less than what you initially spent on it and you continue to spend money on it for upkeep and gas.
I find myself doing this same kind of analysis when I buy clothing. Sure, this is a really cute dress that would be perfect for that one ~*fancy*~ thing I have next week, but how many times am I actually going to wear it? And how much does it cost? If I won’t wear it more than a couple of times and its cost is at the higher end of my budget, chances are I won’t buy it because I wouldn’t get my money’s worth from it.
With all of this talk of my very (and I mean very) limited knowledge of economics, here’s where I bring the sport of swimming into the mix. Swimming is something that has an initial cost to it — time, effort, commitment, actual money for suits and equipment — but I think that the return that comes out outweighs any initial deposit. Swimming is valuable.
