To be clear, it's not that sleeping while horizontal is better than being awake while horizontal. We all need solid sleep, but being horizontal should otherwise be minimized as it is the ultimate sedentary lifestyle.[0] This causes heart atrophy.
I think you’re incorrectly jumping to correlations/causations.
Your references are due to sedentary, not laying down. You can have a sedentary life standing in place most of the day. Likewise, the problem is being sedentary, not what position your sedentary in.
It’s a reasonable hypothesis, but you’d need to experiment to validate it. It’s easy to imagine how prolonged exposure to bed rest or microgravity may trigger heart muscle remodelling in a way that intermittent bouts of lying down would not.
Another advantage of financing even though you would have had the money on hand is that you have more liquidity/the option of doing something with that money in the meantime.
Also someone may have some assets they could turn into liquid cash if I really needed to but may not have a lot of liquid cash on hand, so there would be little risk in paying something in installments as long as their assets would be enough to cover it in a pinch.
While liquidity is a reasonable argument, I only know this from "rich people doing things/investments"; e.g. not selling shares in your company when building a new house, or a company building a warehouse.
I am not sure it actually applies to the cost of a phone. Chances are, if those matter, you'd be better off with a cheaper phone to begin with. (Substitute phone with other luxury articles).
Well I said yes and the bar was red, which says to me I disagreed with the majority. I assumed the bar indicated how many people said it wasn't since I said it was and the bar was red.
But either way, when I said "is a vehicle" it said I disagreed with the majority.
Yea it's a weird graph. The bar is red if you answer "yes" and brown if you answer "no."
The percentage of people who say "yes, it violates the rule" is the y axis
