Title: PH Maths

So the usual user posts a feed asking what's the fastest way to earn PD.

I usually don't give it much thought. And other users just answer, CLICK!

Yea, it's obvious. But you know, clicking gets old after the first 20 clicks LOL.

But anyways, I was bored and it got me thinking, how much PD do you get for clicking a lot anyways?

Math times!

During SCS (Speed Click Saturday) I notice I click about 100 clicks per minute. SCS is about 10 minutes long and cuz I'm clicking like crazy I can get to about 1200 clicks. Which isn't exactly 100 clicks a minute. But it's at the cost of a really tired hand.

So for the math to be realistic and not destroy fingers, we'll say 100 clicks per minute.

Clicking 1 pokemon gives you about 12 PD.

So if you were to click for an hour straight, it'd be...
60 minutes x 100 clicks = 6,000 clicks x 12 PD = 72,000 PD

Now this got me thinking... Nuggets...
Nuggets are pretty much $$$

My brother likes to justify his purchases with math of how many hours of work he put in to buy something.
So like if a meal is about $10 he'd be like it's worth 1 hour of work. Or if he buys something expensive he'd be like that was day's worth of work.

So, how much are PD to nuggets to real life $$$ to hard work?

I've never bought nuggets before, so I don't know the exact cost of nuggets, like if there's service fees. But let's just say 100 nuggets is $1 USD. I'm Canadian so there's a conversion cost for me OTL, but let's just stick with USD.

K, the tricky part of this whole math thing is choosing a number for 1 hour of real life work... the realistic and safest option is to choose a minimum wage number... But where I live the number is slowly going up... So my math won't be accurate in a few months or years time... America's minimum wage is about $8 and the minimum where I lived used to be $8 for a while... So I'm just gonna choose $8 because I just need a number at this point.

An hours worth of nuggets would be...
100 nuggets x $8 = 800 nuggets

Alright, let's compare!

1 hour of clicking is 72,000 PD
1 hour of real life work is 800 nuggets.

Let's convert the nuggets to PD cuz there's no common denominator beside them both being PH currency.

To do that thought I need to choose a conversion rate... But the numbers have been fluctuating upwards a lot.... It was 1500 for a long time. But it has been going up... up to 1600, 1700... and now the Item Market sells em for 1900+ @.@
This is too annoying so imma just choose 1500 because I don't think it will ever go lower than that.

800 nuggets x 1500 PD = 1,2000,000 PD
One... one... ONE MILLION?!

1 hour of clicking is 72,000 PD
and
1 hour of real life work is 1,2000,000 PD

The difference!

1,2000,000 PD / 72,000 PD = 16.66̅6̅
So... 16 hours of clicking would be about 1 hour of real life work >.<
I can see why some people would rather pay for some things.

But you know, even if money could buy you lots of PD, a game is a game.
Math can be used to convert all sorts of things into money back and forth. But what does it all mean to you at the end of the day when you have loads of currency. Are you happy with where you are? Are you happy with having a lot of things? Are you at peace with yourself? Are you at peace with others in your life? Are you eating well? Are you sleeping well?

Haha, this math post has turned into a TED talk all of a sudden.

What I'm trying to say is that life should be enjoyed. The value or amount of things shouldn't control how we do things all the time. In moderation a little math to figure out the value of things to help us make decisions is good. If you're passionate about numbers and go into a profession about them, great. But I think there times where you have to see if numbers of things are controlling your life or not. Are you enjoying what you're doing? Are the people around you happy too?

I'm not trying to say no to numbers, no to math. I rather like the occasional math here and there.
I'm not trying to say no to being high achievers.
I'm not trying to say no to collecting what you like.
I'm not trying to say yay to communism. (It's the current topic of the decade so feel like I have to acknowledge it.)

I'm just trying to say that we should all take care of ourselves. See what's truly important.

--------------------------

Totally not intending to have a mini TED talk, but it is what it is.

What I intended to end off my post with was a mention, that I have noticed there are probably other users who have done PH maths so I could've just looked them up. But doing the math myself helps me get a better understanding of it and doesn't hurt to have it written down for myself.

Well, I'm tired now after writing this post. So much longer than I thought it'd be lol. Somehow it always is.
