Yes, You SHOULD Have

Posted by digamma @ 12:17 pm EDT

This New York Times editorial says that a $5 million gift certificate good for unlimited lifetime first-class travel on American Airlines is a bad gift, because to make it pay for itself, you’d have to take 10 trips a year for 31.2 years.

To all of you readers who were considering buying me this $5 million gift for my birthday or Christmas until you read the editorial, I’d like to reiterate that I would appreciate it very much. At least until American Airlines goes bankrupt.
