Profit

All human endeavor, individually or collectively, is for profit or gain

Profit can be money, goods, time, satisfaction, emotion and faith or any other measurement,
it is in the eyes of the beholder

An "equal" trade still provides profit to each trader

People will attempt to input the least for the most amount of profit

Profit is always in the future, and its total cannot be knowable

Profit is dependent on probability

Even the purest altruistic endeavor is for profit, that being satisfaction, or even "entry into
heaven"

Any act between two or more people results in a profit to each, even an immeasurable such
as a good time by both or all.

Any act between two or more people results in a profit even if none is desired or sought

Profit derives from choices

Individuals, groups, public enterprises, governments, corporations, and any and all other
entities seek profit in their acts

Profit is higher with diplomacy than with war or violence or theft.

Profit is higher the more risk put into the gain
