The expressions "high time preference" and "low time preference" are not defined here, but they are used all over the Austrian literature. They are frankly confusing, and I often forget which one means "prefers to get stuff sooner" and which one means "willing to wait if it means they will get more stuff".

Yes, that is something, that needs to be added - and will be, eventually. :) Pestergaines 21:58, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
