When making online purchases, we ran into a problem: we were ignoring the opportunity cost. Because of this, we made a Chrome Extension that automatically calculates and displays the opportunity cost assuming a 5% yearly interest for 10 years.

Our goal? To help you (and us) spend smarter. We created this Chrome Extension because we noticed we were shopping mindlessly online without considering the opportunity cost of our purchases. We would love to hear your thoughts here on Product Hunt, Twitter, Indie Hackers, and wherever else you want to find us! If you're curious to hear about our process and improvements we are making, give us a follow at our blog here: https://medium.com/jimmy-neil-ha...

Love it! The opportunity cost is one of the most frequently ignored things. People buy on a whim without asking a question--what can this amount of money be worth X # of years down the line? The plugin will make us all more responsible.
