Such feeling fades away once you start earning more than $5 an hour at illegal construction site.

See, this is what I'm talking about. Of all of the people in this thread, if I were to suggest one's time wasn't very valuable, I'd say it's the one who's apparently happy to trade hours/days of his and his wife's time for a stone rock and branch that 5 different villages could shit 100 out in under an hour.

I would trade hours and days of my life to cook snails, but maybe not necessarily consume them.

Well, Dante was selling 390ish axes for 700 coins and he is buying sub tokens for 100 coins each on his market.
So I would say he values it as at least $60 USD for just the axe

are u actually retarded?

If u could manufacture an iphone for 4 dollars and sell it for 800 dollars would you sell it for 8 dollars or 800 dollars? It has value on the market because of a partial monopoly caused by few people having the ability to make them, but the people with the ability to make them can shit them out for nothing

a single tree can give over 1000 branches... a single rock node can give hundreds of rocks... the rock nodes aren't even something you intentionally search for, they're just a byproduct of looking for ore/feldspar. People usually don't even use mine song for them, when they have functionally infinite XP from realms.

I can almost guarantee you if that if somebody lost their axe from that village they could just go to some chest by the vidol, pick up another one, and nobody would ever notice

Cool? You said it yourself. A minority of people have access to them and the value outside of that circle goes up. I'm happy with it because I definitely couldn't be fucked with making one myself

Why try to act like it doesn't matter? Kinda cringe
