Hello Dr Fairweather,

I have a weird game theory question:

Does “never enough” always beat out “enough” in the long term?

Examples: does “hustle culture” beat out “quiet quitting?”

Does “maximized profits” always beat out “enough profits?”

In essence, if one wanted to be content with enough, would the position be untenable if everyone else wanted more and are able to push their position with the excess economic gains of their perspective?

What advice would you give to a higher schooler looking to become an economist?
