Free vs. Paid: A Zoo Owner's Insight into Human Behavior

Grodno Zoo Owner Highlights the Value of Free and Paid Services A zoo owner from Grodno, Belarus, recently shared his insights on the value people place on free versus paid services. Igor, the owner, recounts his experience offering free food and drinks to visitors at his zoo. He notes a significant difference in how people treat free items compared to those they pay for. "People take free things for granted," Igor explains, "but when they pay, they appreciate the effort and resources that go into it." His observations highlight a common human tendency to undervalue what's freely given. The experience has led him to reflect on the importance of valuing both free and paid services and resources. Igor's story serves as a reminder to appreciate the effort behind any offering, regardless of cost.
