Why I don't offer “student discounts”

You&#x27;re comparing the courses you&#x27;re offering to a Lamborghini? Cool, but I don&#x27;t see why I should place as much value in your product. In fact, you might simply be going for a Veblen goods effect, just like the Lamborghini.<p>That&#x27;s only one part of the problem in your essay.<p>The other part is that it assumes that:<p>1) every student in the world is in the US and<p>2) every student in the world is poor <i>entirely</i> because of university fees.<p>Frankly, whenever someone wants to shell out money for an online course, I caution them. There are <i>tons</i> of free resources out there, some legal, and some not, but all provide quality education.

If you will increase your total profits by offering a student discount, then offer a student discount. If not, then don&#x27;t.<p>Cinemas don&#x27;t offer preferential pricing to children just to be nice. They do it to maximize profits as, overall, children are more price-sensitive. And it&#x27;s much easier to enforce &#x27;child-only&#x27; prices than it is to enforce &#x27;disposable-income-less-than-X&#x27; pricing.
