Re: Ticket scalping: is this illogical?
The situations are somewhat different since you profit less than $250 when you scalp the ticket (not only because you have to invest $50, but also because you have to invest time and effort). It's also illegal in some places.
But I tend to agree with your friend's general point.
It's similar to winning a satellite to a 10k event that you wouldn't normally play. You should sell the seat if at all possible if you weren't comfortable playing it in the first place.
