On 31st October 2006, the Halloween Day, we had many interesting people coming over to our house after dark for candy as usual. They really spent the time and effort to dress up. In return, they got candies. We thought that the effort and reward were not balanced at all. For this kid dressed up as a football player, he did spend a lot of time to paint his face like that. Also, when he met us, he gave us a ugly face for the picture. All those efforts resulted from some candies they would not even eat afterward.
Human beings are quite amazing if you think about it. They would do something just for fun and happiness regardless of the time and effort to achieve that. So, the rules of economics do not apply in people's certain behavior.
