      The logistics of navigating the complicated queue system to optimize one's returns, both by the park designers and by the consumers, are also quite interesting. This is discussed in Defunctland's "FastPass" video.

    Man I love Jacob Clifford. Had a class with my lecturer a few weeks ago but I found it hard to understand the Marginal utility concept, been trying to study and understand it better but I still couldn't grasp it. Thanks to this video I now understand this topic. Need to take this guy to Disneyland as a reward for his lessons.

      @@noname18294 hahaha sooo I was doing a 2 majors, one in Economics and one Accounting (stupid idea). I really struggled to learn economics with my lecturers not willing to go into detail about the topics. I found I was just naturally better at accounting instead and although I enjoyed economics I was spending way too much time due to the lack of teaching provided and not doing very well. So in the end i dropped economics and have nearly graduated with a very high average in accounting.

    Mux/px = Mux/py is the FOC when you are maximization a continuous utility function, but when we are in a discrete world, it is not always true. You can end up optimally choosing x units of good X and y units of Good Y, where Mux/px and Mux/py are different, yet you are still choosing the first best solution!

    Just some food for thought:
    Lets say that our good is shoes and more specifically 1 shoe at a time.
    Buying one shoe would give you some utility. Of course, having one shoe is fine but most people stand on two feet. When you buy the second shoe, your marginal utility greatly increases because with 2 shoes would complete the pair and thus give you more satisfaction than one.
