 A kid goes to the store and is faced with two options: Buying a Coke for one dollar or some candy for at least 50 cent.

But you could have written:

 A kid goes to the store and is faced with two options: Buying some candy for at least 50 cent or a Coke for one dollar.

And now the question is:

What was your profit for choosing the first option?

I'd like to know because I want profits too.


The profit was to be able to buy candy the next day as well, which, to this kid, was a more valuable profit than having something with more taste once.

 

@robzo_ Indeed. I mainly use the word "profit" because I don't know a better suited word.
