The Dollar Rule vs. the Movies, Part 2

In the Dollar Rule vs. the Movies, we discussed that going to the movies theaters may not always be dollar-worthy, since getting to a DRR of 1.0 for what movie tickets cost is hard to justify. Do you get $7.50 - $12 worth out going to a movie?

The Dollar Rule vs. the Movies

It's a sure sign of getting older, whenever you start to think "In my day, X only cost Y dollars." That's what it seems like when you go to the movie theaters now.

The Dollar Rule Ratio

We're going to do a little math now. But I promise it'll be simple. This is probably as mathematical as we're going to get with the Dollar Rule.

Because every purchase involves different prices and time of use, the break-even point varies a lot from item to item. It's hard to compare the break-even point of a toaster to a video game, or lawn service to basketball tickets.
