This is what I think is a basic question. When a bank sells a home loan it's selling the total value of the loan, which is principal and expected total interest paid minus payments so far, right?
don’t get me started on the most torturous nomenclature known to man, and just as bad as git or aspect programing.
IRRC opportunity cost is an equivalent concept and captures gains or losses forgone of other options over a current choice. That term comes from operations research.
So... what’s the opportunity cost of a society that collapses in chaos with all current threats and inequities unmitigated, versus surviving another millennia, by investing in sustainable energy, innovation, and exploration as a species?
