The galaxy brain version of this question would be “after adjusting for your foresight into consequences” Choosing inconvenience doesn’t count if you do it to avoid a greater long-term net inconvenience. Ie it has to be choosing higher NPV of path inconvenience for “growth”.https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1133603441790443520 …

The most common answer to my original question was “having children”. The prototypical “it costs what it costs” decision to bring a unique entity into your life rather than a conveniently satisficing entity like a low-maintenance pet.

Adoption is a great test decision. Whether pets or kids you can make it as easy or as hard for yourself as you like. Example adopting a special needs child who would really inconvenience your life. Very few do that outside of religious motives.
