    I was always a hyperactive student, was having problems with reading an entire textbook, or paying attention at the classes. Deep inside I knew I loved learning new things, but couldn't connect with the system. economics was my favorite subject. Your videos literally changed my life, May God give you more fame and fortune to finally help the entire world get educated- from India

      but some people like elon musk, bill gates, sergey&larry, zuckerberg, peter thiel and more of them are already passing those thought and focus on other values in a person. even mr.thiel encourage college student to drop out and pursue their idea with $100.000 funding. all i'm saying is as a younger and more open-minded generation we shouldn't think that uni degree is a very important value cause there's still a lot more other value out there that can be chase with less money. learning through khan academy is one of it

    While the Production Possibilities Frontier (PPF) is a valuable tool for understanding trade-offs and resource allocation in economics, it's essential to approach it with a measured perspective. The PPF makes certain simplifications and assumptions to provide a clear representation, but these should be acknowledged. Its static nature assumes other factors remain constant, and it doesn't account for dynamic changes over time, such as technological advancements or shifts in resources. Additionally, the PPF assumes consistent, identical and interchangeable resources, which might oversimplify the diverse nature of inputs in real-world production. Not to vilify it, the PPF is a great and useful model, but it does make assumptions that you should take with a grain of salt, as Sal mentioned in the Khan Academy video focused on economic models.

    • @VinayakPrabhu
      @VinayakPrabhu 9 лет назад +4

      It's a concept called diminishing marginal returns. The more time you give up of one thing to get another, you gain less and less. Here if you look from scenario A to F, the number of berries you gained by progressively giving up a rabbit diminishes. Therefore it is convex by nature.
