Sunk Cost

Decide whether to keep going — without the money you can't get back. What you already spent is gone either way, so this only asks what's ahead.

Answer only what's ahead

Value still ahead if you continue—

Cost / effort still ahead—

A clearly better use of this time or money exists.

What you've already spent (optional — it will not count)

We capture this only to set it aside. It's gone whatever you choose — so it never enters the math, and it's never put in a share link.

Answer what's still ahead.

Tell me the value and the cost still in front of you. What's already spent doesn't count — it's gone either way.
