Is this properly accounting for the regional pricing differences of “good girls” and “bitches”? Lil Wayne has lived in a sprawling mansion in Miami, but also now lives in New Orleans. Are we just supposed to accept at face value that the costs are fixed across both localities?
Additionally, Kanye appears to be referencing wholesale costs of “bitches” as he’s talking about getting them in quantities of 1000, while Lil Wayne is clearly buying in retail prices at only 12 “bitches” at a time.
There’s too many inconsistencies to determine objective pricing from the data provided.
There may be an arbitrage opportunity here
Possibly, but it may be high risk. I’m certainly no authority on the subject, however Jay-Z, with a net worth of $2.6 Billion ( source ) doesn’t seem to think its worth the risk. .
He told us “I got ninety-nine problems, but a bitch ain’t one”.
Excellent questions. I look forward to reading your research paper on this subject.
A cross-sectional study would likely yield some short term answers, but the real work will require a longitudinal study to tease out trends in different regions and possibly even impacts from seasonality to take into account price fluctuations and determine volatility. This is well beyond my resources, but the grant application almost writes itself.
There may be parallels that could be learned from examining the price spike in the prison economy during April 2009.

You lost me at “According to Kanye”
You lost yourself at the fact this was a joke just because you went “ooh, Kayne bad”. I don’t like him either but can still see by this to see the joke.
I still don’t get it. He’s not a fish, so how can he be a gay fish?
South Park has done irreparable damage to modern society
I’d suggest the ‘giant douche/ turd sandwich’ rhetoric had a direct impact on the 2004 and 2016 elections - both of which were ‘lost’ by the Democrats, by razor thin (even a razor that folds over one way but ends up cutting the other way somehow, because fuck the will of the people) margin, and had profound effects on the society of their time. It also staunchly reenforced the apathy and both-sideism we see to this day.
Is this before or after tax?
If the “good girl” is named “Charity”, does that qualify her as a 501c(3) making her tax exempt?
But do you really want to “write her off” on your taxes?
Don’t forget delivery
Is there some tipping involved?
What about return policy?
Shipping AND handling
Then what are the goodest girls worth?
Who’s a good girl? You are! Who’s a good girl? You are!
No way that’s worth only $8.33. Though at a shelter you can rescue one for basically free (+ medical).
They be out there giving away the best bitches for free smh
So, 16 50-cents, with some change left?
17, no? 16 would be $8
If you account for inflation, that’s now about $11.
Read the title
The title says $16, which is incorrect.
OP jacking up the price of good girls and blaming it on inflation.
fuck, it’s been a day.
Nope, that’s not the title ;-p
I knew taking four years of Applied Rap Math would pay off.
Worth and cost are different. They may be worth 8 but how much it costs to get one?

Which in turn builds on research by Dre et al. concluding that bitches ain’t nothing.
That means that you can get a good girl with a side of freedom for under $10, and still have enough for a can of soda, a dime candy, and a couple pieces of gum.
Just try not to fall victim to shrinkflation when youre shopping for one
I was in the pool!
I don’t know how you guys walk around with those things.
These guys should be on the Supreme Court.
That’s a joke, right?
Eh, not worth it, I’ll keep being a bitch.
I’ll take three, please!
I’m not gonna start trusting financial advice from anyone who investes money in gold jewelry for their teeth.
I mean, if you get arrested and get your assets seized, you can just sell that stuff off. That’s what pimps did back in the day.
Probably a wise choice.
