Talk:Debt

Clarification of this sentence needed

I didn't understand this sentence: The terms of the agreement may be expected to take account of "time preference", which is an observed tendency to attach greater value to current enjoyment than to deferred enjoyment. so for now I've moved it to the end of the paragraph, because I understood the preceding. Could that be rephrased so that people like me will get it in one? Aleta Curry 02:13, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you Aleta. I need that sort of comment. However, I can't think of any other way of putting it, but it is not essential to the understanding of the article so I have deleted it. Anyway it is perhaps no more than a "scholarly" (show-off's ?) way of explaining something that was already obvious to the average reader.Nick Gardner 11:15, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
