I've been recently receiving these very interesting economics related articles from Jon Lee. While Jon's transformation into a practicing economist may be rational thing to do, the implications for Jon's moral code seem unsettling.
The first article Jon sends me describes how one should safely avoid speeding tickets (reasoning based on allocation of police resources). I presume that he'll reason that he can sidestep other heinous crimes, like stealing puppies and hunting bald eagles too.
The second article describes how once Jon makes a 500k dollars a year in hedge funds (Jon will change his career from engineering to business), Jon's strategic plan for relationships will be to lease his girlfriends while they are still attractive because they are depreciating assets, while his money will only appreciate in the future.
