sunk cost

“If you get on the wrong train, get off at the nearest station. The longer it takes you to get off, the more expensive the return trip will be.” — Japanese proverb


「沈默成本不是成本」

  • 有選擇就有成本,沒有選擇就沒有成本。當我們無法再做選擇的時候,就不存在成本。
  • 成本是放棄了的最大代價,是「所有放棄了的選項當中價值最大的那個」。沉沒成本,指那些已經發生但無法收回的支出。當我們無法再收回、無法再放棄時,就不存在成本。
  • 沉没成本不可追,再浪費時間就是錯上加錯。
