American Idol

Are you into American Idol? I never saw the show, but I know just enough to know that anyone who actually watches that show is at the same time having their pockets picked.

In economics, an opportunity cost is another name for something else you could have spent time on. For example, American Idol is an opportunity cost of education. That is where you are getting ripped off.

Moment by moment your life is slipping away as you sit there and admire someone who doesn't even sign your paycheck.

I suppose you could say you were studying for Springfield Idol.
