Can’t Buy Me Love. . . Well, Almost

Here’s an interesting article that has calculated how much certain values we hold can be translated into a monetary value.  It’s in British pounds but we can still see some things having a higher number than others.  Perhaps this supports utilitarianism?

    This is interesting but how did they determine the worth of these? If it is by a poll then it is interesting because it would suggest that there is a difference between ‘intellectual pleasures’ and less intellectual ones. It interests me that as much as you here about how people love to go to the movies over reading a book. Still the value of a good book is more then a good movie, interesting.
