    I would give 1000 hours of my time to a surgeon if it meant they saved the life of my partner. I don’t care if it only took them 60 seconds.

    Some things are far, far more valuable than a single extra 0.

      I mean, ideally there’s a hospital where lots of doctors work and provide their labour at an equitable rate based on reality, rather than a situation tailored for high stakes. But I get the sentiment.

        The number of doctors is irrelevant. The point is that some things are worth far, far more than a single extra 0.
