    I have a $10/hour entertainment budget. If a movie ticket is $15 and I get 1.5 hours of entertainment then it was a good purchase. if I pick up a game for $60 then I expect to get at least 6 hours of fun from it.

    Using this measure I’ve decided books provide some of the highest value entertainment and fancy restaurants some of the lowest value entertainment.

    But that’s just me.

      That means the answer to the question would be 2? After two plays you have about 6 minutes of entertainment which are worth $1.

      Btw I do the same entertainment budget calculations (as well as “what is my free time worth”)

      $10/hour entertainment budget

      So… worst case you spend $87,600 per year? (assuming you want to be entertained during sleep as well…)
