Conversion formula for time into momey
I've tried to work it out just to see if it was consistent but it only seems to work on the lower levels. For example...
A cup of coffee at the food truck was 3 minutes the day before but now costs 4 minutes. So 1 minute = 1 dollar seems reasonable, especially when JT gives the little girl on the street 5 minutes.
Doing the math, this makes an hour worth $60 which begins to stretch things a little and by the time we work out that a day is then worth $1440 we really have to start suspending disbelief, as rent costs half of JTs mom's 3-day budget ($2160) and, wait for it... the Jaguar costs 59 years which works out to 1440 X 364* X 59 = a staggering 30,925,440 dollars! Something is definitely wrong here! Even with terrible inflation and 150 years from now, this is an astronomically unrealistic leap.
Let's say a minute was only worth a quarter instead of a dollar. That makes the Jag about 8 million. A little more palpable but still hard to swallow lol.
Yeah I know. I think about crazy stuff like this way too much lol.
*-364 days per year based on the 52 week counter on their arms dropping to 51:59:59 instead of a full year
