Time to calculate how much 1 marshmallow is worth in time considering minimum wage in my country.
Let’s begin.
Minimum wage in Slovakia is €4.69/h.
An 80g bag of Jojo marshmallows is €1.19 at Tesco.
It claims one portion is 3 marshmallows which is 11.7g.
Therefore 1 marshmallow is 3.9g.
Therefore there are 20 - 21 marshmallows in the bag.
Therefore 1 marshmallow costs roughly €0.058.
€4.69/h is €0.078/m or €0.0013/s.
Therefore, 1 marshmallow costs roughly 44.62 seconds of work time.
Well, assuming there are no taxes. So maybe something close to 1 minute per marshmallow. Although… maybe if we add total time, including time you’re not working… 12 marshmallows an hour, 288 a day, 2016 a week, 8640 a month. That’s €501.12/month.
Based on this the minimum monthly wage after taxes and all is €661.80/month.
