WRT cost, I always like to tell the story of when I was doing competitive bicycling: If I saw a new rider without a helmet, I'd drop back and talk with him (it was usually a "him.") Then I'd get around to suggesting a helmet. There was a predictable series of responses like fit, comfort, heat transfer, et myriad cetera, but it often came down to cost. At that point, one of the other riders would often drop back, enter the conversation, and offer his business card.He was a neurosurgeon, and happily pointed out that his fees in the OR ran between $90 and $120 per minute.
Remember the FRAM Oil Filter commercial? ... "You can pay me now or you can
pay me later"
