To be fair you could just say “yellow _____” because a lot of things don’t lose their value because their yellow.

5,000 yellow Lamborghinis, 5,000 yellow houses, 5,000 yellow boats. You get the point

WE ALL LIVE IN A YELLOW SUBMARINE, A YELLOW SUBMARINE.

If the 5000 submarines are each big enough to house 1,700,000 people then we could indeed all live in yellow submarines.

But adding 5000 Lamborghini to the world's supply of lambos is gonna tank the price or cost you a fortune in storage, fuel, maintenance, and people will damage and steal probably hundreds of them as you're unable to secure them all.

They cost at least $200,000 each. You only need to sell off 100 to make $20 million. That would be enough money for me to be set for life. So who cares if a few get nicked?

But if you add 5,000 to existence, they no longer cost $200k each. Part of their value is in their scarcity.

u/massive_hypocrite123 4d ago

But you control the supply. Just because there are 5k in existence does not mean there are 5k on the market

u/across7777 5d ago

Yeah but just to keep things simple I’d go yachts instead of yellow boats,

u/Excellent-Log7169 4d ago

What would lose it's value if it were yellow?

2

u/TheRealStevo2 4d ago

Yellow dollar bills maybe ? Even if it is real I could see merchants not wanting to take it because they think it’s fake, our money is green after all
